The Fleet of the Silver Princess by Chris Smith. Our “Water” exhibition may have been postponed but the silver lining is the extra time being put into some works. Chris has kindly provided us with a preview of this beautiful piece.

@barbadams7395 has completed her entry for the @blarneybooksandart #biblioartprize2021. Crossing our fingers and toes that we will be able to visit the exhibition in person. “A sneak peak at my entry for the Biblio Art Prize BLARNEY BOOKS & ART The book I was given to inspire this work is Unsheltered by Clare Moleta. I found the story disturbing, well written and inspirational. Li's search for her daughter Matti was distressing but the scenes painted by the author helped with the art work.” .............#papermakers #papermaker #papermaking #papermakersofvictoria #paper #recycle #recyclepaper #handmadepaper #papercrafts #pulp #mouldanddeckle #paperartist #paperartists #paperart #handcrafted #handmade #Victoria #melbourne #decklededge #decklededgepaper #deckleedgedpaper #artistbook #handmadebooks #handmadebook #book #books @iapma

Posted @withregram • @gail_stiffe_books_paper Making a start on my piece for the biblio art prize. My book is Rural Dreams by Margaret Hickey a series of short stories set in rural Australia. The paper is hemp fabric that I had retting for at least two years. Thank you @annethodayart for the tip about rinsing the iron blanket and streaming. I'm very happy with the result. Now to get it off the sheet of fibrocement and turn it into a book. The leaves are peppermint gum and just the right size for my idea.@blarneybooksandart .........#handmade #handmadepaper #papermakingworkshop #ecoprint #natural #naturaldyes #biblio #biblioartprize #papermaking #artistbook #paperartist #paperarts #paperart #paperartists #gumleaves #papermaker #papermaking #papermakers

We were delighted to have Artist and Art Educator

We were delighted to have Artist and Art Educator Liz Powell of Studio13paper present to us in the first of our online artist’s talks. Liz generously discussed some of her recent works and the inspiration/thought processes behind them. Shown here are “Settler’s Tale” and “Archeology on the Tablelands”.............#papermakers #papermaker #paper #papermakersofvictoria #learntomakepaper #handmadepaper #papermaking #handmade #papercrafts #melbourne #pulp #mouldanddeckle #paperartist #paperartists #paperart #welovepaper #handcrafted #decklededge #decklededgepaper #deckleedgedpaper #plantbased #plantfibre #plantfiber #lizpowell #studio13paper #printmaker #etching #mixedmedia #stitch

We are very lucky to have Liz talking to our membe

We are very lucky to have Liz talking to our members tomorrow (online of course). We are looking forward to hearing about “The History, The Landscape, The Print”. Repost from Liz Powell: Last year during the first lockdown in Australia the book shop/art gallery Blarney Books issued a challenge to help support Australian authors. Artists were given a recently published title to base a work around. My book was 'Shepherd' by Catherine Jinks, set in early colonial times about a young poacher sentenced to transportation in NSW. I did a carousel book called 'Wordless' using etchings and drawings to communicate something of the environment that was so alien to the newcomers that they had no names for what they were seeing. This year Blarney books are doing it again as we deal with yet another period of isolation. Love a challenge! .............#papermakers #papermaker #papermaking #papermakersofvictoria #paper #recycle #recyclepaper #handmadepaper #papercrafts #pulp #mouldanddeckle #paperartist #paperartists #paperart #handcrafted #handmade #Victoria #melbourne #colour #decklededge #decklededgepaper #deckleedgedpaper #artistbook #handmadebooks #handmadebook #book #books #lizpowell #printing #etching
