Paper Line : Pulp Painting as Script Workshop August 25 - 26 10:00AM - 4:00PM Instructed by Emily Cook
Who said paper had to be flat? In this two-day workshop you will experiment by pulp painting with high shrinkage fibers such as help, flax, and abaca. When you layer these different fibers on top of each other while creating your imagery and line drawings – even without a base sheet – the fibers will pull and shrink as they dry. The results of this process are dynamic and densely colored sculptural drawings. You will be encouraged to create most of your wet work Saturday so Sunday can be spent determining options for and assembling the dry drawings into more complete works. This is a great follow up to Unusual 3D Techniques instructed by Melissa Jay Criag as it is another very distinct way you can add dimension to your papermaking.
Emily Cook holds a BFA from Ontario College of Art and Design and MFA from Louisiana State University. She has taught papermaking and book arts at the Louisiana State University, OCAD University, and the Ottawa School of Art. She is the director of Paperhouse Studio in Toronto, Canada, a newly formed cooperative of paper artists that will be housed in the Artscape Shaw Centre. Her recent work involves large-scale paper sculpture. You can see her work at www.emilycook.ca
