Papermaking in Essex

Traveled out to the Essex Print Studio for a Sunday workshop. It wasn't as far away as I thought it was.... British Rail had me go out through Liverpool St, but I came back on the circle line  and then bus from Leytonstone....
The workshop went really well and the participants and Lynne , the studio owner, created some great pieces. T'was a bit nippy in the studio but we all forgot that as the paper making began.....

The workshop gave them a good understanding about the usage of different fibres, coloration and Western style sheet formation. They went into experimental mode very quickly....love it when this happens....the resulting papers....brilliant!!
