Print Day in May 2021: Printmaking with Heritage Washi 

Some of the finest paper made in Japan is referred to as Heritage Washi. Heritage Washi is a term coined by Nancy, Jacobi, founder of The Japanese Paper Place, but what is it exactly? What makes it so exceptional? The use of handmade, Japanese paper in printmaking has a long and storied history. Join us to learn more about Heritage Washi and why it could be the right
choice for your next edition.
In this 90-minute webinar, Sigrid Blohm, artist, and Fine Paper Specialist at The Japanese Paper Place, will discuss the paper making process, the types of fibres used in Japanese paper making, how the different fibres influence the resulting paper, and features of Heritage Washi. She will be showing examples of printing on Heritage Washi and discussing how to make the best washi-choice for your project.
