PAPERMAKING
I began learning the art of papermaking in 2014, and went on to create with a various of upcycled and raw materials as I learned more about the craft. I was Artist-in-Residence at Cape Fear Botanical Garden from 2016-2018, where I engaged the community in papermaking processes, including helping military veterans make paper from their military uniforms, and teaching children about plants and nature through art-making. I've taught papermaking and art workshops in a variety of other settings to all age groups, including demos and pop-up papermaking workshops. Here are examples of my workshops, demos and handmade paper work and exhibits. I created handmade paper artwork from recycled clothing, military uniforms and raw plants I harvested with the help CFBG Staff. I've since taught workshops, camps and worked 1:1 with individuals to use papermaking and other art forms as a source of reauthoring and storytelling. Learn More
