2DPM309 Papermaking for Imagemakers:Print, Paint, Photo, and Word 3cr


Students learn traditional techniques and contemporary methods of working with handmade paper. Topics  include: pulp preparation, 2-D
sheet forming and controlled drying, 3-D construction methods of vacuum forming, casting with printed imagery, and pulp spraying on
canvas.  Students develop visual vocabulary while learning to create surface imaging through painting with pigmented overbeaten pulps and
constructing with interior collaged laminations. Students can produce custom stock for editions, shape deckles, make watermarks and stenciled
“blowouts”. We will work with both Western and Eastern fibers as well as local plant fibers and customized recycled pulp. This class is open to
all levels of motivated students interested in working in the non-toxic, well equipped Mass Art papermaking studio.
