Painting with Paper Pulp
Students will explore how to make pigmented paper pulp to create a full palette of colors, and how to use those wet fibers as a kind of paint. Students will learn the process for making both smooth and textured paper pulp, as well as techniques for mark-making, creating shapes of color, building layered images and how to retain negative space within a composition.

Sunday, June 20, 2027 - Papermaking with Regional Plants with WildCraft
10am-4pm - registration info coming soon
This workshop will be held in Oregon City, OR at our home studio garage.
This workshop will introduce students to the wild and cultivated plants that can be used to make strong, beautiful paper of varied hues and textures. On a walk around the Pulp & Deckle studio property, students will harvest plants before returning to the studio to cut and cook the plants down into raw fibers, ready for the next stage of pulping! The class will then dive into processing fibers with kitchen blenders and by hand with mallets, making pulp. We’ll finish out the day making the pulp into sheets of paper, learning pressing and drying techniques that you can duplicate on your own after the workshop. You’ll leave the class with a sampler of damp papers that can be used for a variety of purposes including postcards, drawing, painting, collage, bookmaking, or as-is as a piece of art on its own.
