Papermaking Artist
Papermaking changed my art & life.
Let me show you artistic papermaking, and change yours.
You know how you’re looking for an earth-friendly art medium?
I started Paperslurry in 2012 because artistic papermaking makes you stop and go: “HOLY GUACAMOLE!!!!!!”
So, how do you turn natural pulp into handmade papers, paintings & sculptures? And how can you learn from a pro papermaking artist?
Find out by signing up for Paperslurry Weekly.
I’m so happy you’re here!
Stay curious,
