Papermaking with Plants at Langstaff S.S.

As part of my Artist In Education 2015-2016 program with the Ontario Arts Council, students made paper from plants to use in their lanterns. Students made paper from milkweeds, cedar, and daffodil fibers.

Artist In Education 2014-2015



I like to take a moment to thank the Ontario Arts Council for letting me be apart of the Artist-In-Education program during the school year 2014-2015. During this school year I was at Danforth C.T.I., and Humberside C.I. demonstrating the techniques used to create a paper light sculpture. It has been a wonderful learning experience not only for the students, but also for myself as well!

Artist In Education September 2013 – June 2014

I'm happy to announce, with support from the Ontario Arts Council, that I'll will be holding a Paper Light Sculpture workshop at six high schools throughout Ontario.

I will be contacting schools beginning September 2013, but if you have a school that would like to be on my contact list, please let me know and I will get in touch with them.
