Papermaking Workshop with Ashley Page
Description
Ashley Page – Papermaking Workshop
Friday, August 7, 11am – 2pm
Join Portland based artist Ashley Page in this hands-on papermaking workshop! Focused on the beauty of botanicals, attendees will learn basic sheet forming and incorporate fresh and dried plant material within the papers. Participants can create floral compositions within their pages using embedding or use plants as inclusions in their papers, creating beautiful, unexpected papers. Once dried, these papers can be framed, collaged, written, painted or drawn upon. This is a beginner class that has plenty of space for experimenting and intuitive making! No prior paper making experience is required, and participants will be guided through each step of the process. Something to consider: Papermaking is a wet process; participants should be prepared with waterproof or water-safe shoes and clothing. Suggested Materials to bring (This is totally optional, but helpful for attendees): Plant matter from your personal gardens, floral arrangements, foraging etc; Botanical related imagery or collage material; A personal pair of tweezers; Waterproof apron (or clothes you’re okay with being wet); Waterproof shoes (or shoes that are okay with getting water on them); Sketchbook + mark making tools. All are welcome, no prior experience in papermaking necessary.
