THE ART OF PAPERMAKING
JACQUELINE MALLEGNI
ENCAUSTIC ON PAPER
SHERRY IKEDA
ENCAUSTIC ART INSTITUTE, SANTA FE
AUGUST 4 & 5
The ancient art forms of Papermaking and Encaustic merge in this two-day
workshop taught by Jacqueline Mallegni and Sherry Ikeda.
Saturday:
Learn to make Japanese style paper, washi, from kozo, the bark of
the paper mulberry. We will form sheets of beautiful handmade
paper using a 5 x 7 inch mould and deckle. The paper made
during this day-long workshop will be made specifically for use
with encaustic. Participants will learn how to process kozo fiber
from beating to sheet formation to drying. Foraged plant material
from the EAI grounds may be added for color and texture.

Sunday:
This is a great workshop for those interested in learning the
ancient art of encaustic (painting with wax). Learn how to
combine encaustic and paper through collage, direct
painting and monoprint. We will also use heat guns, torches,
and tacking irons to fuse and build layers.
