"I work with paper because it's strong and fragile at the same time," says Artist-in-Residence Susan Shaw. Inspired by the legends surrounding the Hudson Valley, Susan experimented with the papermaking process to create approximately fifty pieces. Here, the art is not on the paper, the art is in the paper. Read more on our blog bit.ly/susan-shaw.

Book artist and papermaker Mandy Brannan helped participants to discover the creative possibilities of combining two papermaking techniques; traditional style Japanese papermaking and recycled papermaking. The masterclass began with hand-beating kozo fibres, which add both strength and delicacy to the work. The following stage was working with recycled pulps with found papers, finally creating experimental paper sheets by combining both kozo fibres and recycled pulp.

The Book Club of California’s 2016 summer exhibition, Fine Print: The Review for the Arts of the Book (1975-1990), focuses on the remarkable legacy of this San Francisco-based journal, which began as the vision of Sandy Kirshenbaum; grew and thrived with the efforts of a core editorial team that included Stephen Corey, rare book librarian, and two young printers, Linnea Gentry and George Ritchie, who were working for Andrew Hoyem at the time; and went on to achieve high standards of both content and form through the contributions of many talented collaborators from California and around the world. Throughout its fifteen year run, Fine Print not only provided a showcase for the best in fine press publishing, but attempted to integrate all of the book arts, including calligraphy, bookbinding, papermaking, wood engraving, and type design—the latter increasingly devoted to digitization and computer-generated types—while also offering important articles on the history of the book and creating a space for conversation among writers, scholars, and book artists from around the world. Fine Print’s many contributors included Martin Antonetti, Nicolas Barker, Charles Bigelow, Robert Bringhurst, John Dreyfus, Paul Hayden Duensing, Colin Franklin, EM Ginger, Steven Heller, Andrew Hoyem, Janet Ing, Paul Needham, Stan Nelson, Will Powers, Wesley Tanner, Benjamin Vorst, Hermann Zapf, and many others. As Robert D. Harlan has written, “The entire corpus [of Fine Print] will continue to be studied and admired by practitioners, students, and connoisseurs.”

Made for Try it Tuesdays- Week 3
Easy Plantable Seed Paper
This was pretty easy to do except it is still drying so we'll see how it holds up. I didn't have any seeds left so I added rose petals, delphiniums, chamomile, lavender, lemongrass, marigold petals, and cosmetic grade glitter. I also added small shreds of purple tissue.
Okay this one fell apart. Try #2 is in the oven now. I soaked what fell apart and mixed it up until it was like smooth oatmeal. Hopefully this one will stay together.

I love how many sheets I can fit on one felt. It makes me feel super productive.
Another beauty is that I was able to easily make the paper hot press with an iron on 'cotton' setting. I ran it over the paper (sandwiched between two fine-grained felts) until it was nearly dry, then stacked it and pressed it for the final bit.
I'm hoping that hot pressing will make for a more delicate final texture and fit proportionately with the scale of the sheet.

The event took place at the Paper Lab, Art Lofts, University of Wisconsin-Madison.

One-month Trip to Georgia, Carolinas & Minnesota, Fall 2008
Photo: Atlanta, GA. Tucked away inside Georgia Tech is the Robert C. Williams Papermaking Museum
On my first day in Atlanta I was going to bike to Stone Mountain, but it rained really hard all day, so I got out the umbrella and went on an urban hike. I found part of the The Path to walk along, was excited to see the georgia red clay earth again and Kudzu growing in the the trees. I lived in Stone Mountain, a suburb or Atlanta from 1980 to 1983. And my memory was stronger than I thought. I felt I was home. People were super friendly to me and I really enjoyed my time in Atlanta, especially hanging with Kyla. I also met my childhood friend Kim, explored Decatur, a neighboring town (the old cemetery was so cool), walked through "Squirrel Park" (Inman Park) and Little Five Points, had an amazing dinner at Kyla's parent's house, attended a 3 hour Yom Kippor service (Jewish high holy day) at Kyla's parent's church that used to be only gay & lesbian members. On my second day I took the Marta Train downtown, and visited the Center for Puppetry Arts - where I went as a kid (they had a jim henson exhibit - Labyrinth!), and a Papermaking museum at Georgia Tech, plus I took lots of "apocalyptic" photos of the new urban buildings among undeveloped fields.
Ellen and Chris led students in creatin sculptures from the inside out, starting with elegant armatures. Beginning with skeletal frames of wire, steel, twine, and basket weaving, students then created paper to cover their forms.
