Pulp

I have been making handmade paper for twenty years. 
I love mixing the palette of paper pulp; it's one part science, 

one part cooking! Last week I had the opportunity to work at an incredible 

private papermaking studio in Sedona. We prepared cotton and abaca 

fiber for paper casting and pulp painting. The paper is cast in a large 

vacuum table that is filled with water to suspend the pulp. An artist can cast 

thick, dimensional paper pieces that are very sculptural. Using squeeze 

bottles filled with pigmented, overbeaten pulp fiber, an artist can pulp 

paint and draw images and designs with paper! It is so much 

fun and the possibilities are endless! To get started visit
