I discovered the summer issue of the Friends of the Library magazine in the office. Not only does the cover showcase one of the submissions from the Paper in Motion portfolio from Hand Papermaking but it has an excellent article about the Artists’ Book Collection in the Kohler Art Library. You can see some “Behind the Scene” photos of the studio setup.
The Summer 2012 edition is in print. It is the fourth edition that I have designed. Hand Papermaking is the best resource for all aspects of papermaking. This issue is dedicated to information for papermaking studios and equipment. Every issue has a few samples of actual handmade paper. You can see a photograph of a sample spread in the Hand Papermaking gallery. Try getting that tactical delight from an eBook! Keep this publication going.
