I get so hungry in class!
Often when we are working in class, pulp looks like food. Jean Funcke has some pinkish pulp that is so similar to cake icing that I wish someone had brought a birthday cake to class. Let’s take a moment to review why we even took this photo.Jean and Andrea Brdek have been making large sheets of paper in class (see previous post). We’ve been using a large bent paint knife to even out and smooth the top part of the sheet. It takes a delicate touch to smooth out the sheet’s surface. The knife can also be used to spread pulp in order to fill in thin areas of the sheet. Andrea’s sheet below is a bit thicker and does not have as many thin areas, but she does want the surface to be even.
This photogrpah give a better view of the process.
