Meet me, see my artwork, and learn more about the art of papermaking!
Each Summer I participate in the League of NH Craftsmen's Fair, the oldest artisan fair in the country. I have exhibited at Living with Crafts, The Shop at The Fair, and at The NH Artist Association Tent. I love the energy of the fair, and the way people come together to support the arts in this state!
I have been running papermaking workshops at the fair for over 10 years. I started before my daughters were born and now that they are old enough to help, they join me with the process!
Participants are able to learn the basics of papermaking, and can get their hands wet forming their own sheet, adding bits of natural botanicals and sparkling embellishment to make their paper truly unique. Their sheets can dry while they enjoy the exhibits at the fair and then take home their own sheets of handmade paper.
