About the teacher:
Susan is a lover of all things paper and founder of Born In Paper. It is fair to say Susan’s obsession with the beautiful textures, colours, and even the smell of printing and paper, has quite literally been ingrained in her since birth. Growing up in a family printing business in Byron Bay meant hands-on with everything. Binding notepads, collating, sorting lead type or dusting gold on wedding stationery.
For years, Susan was taking office waste from her workplace and recycling it into handmade papers. Now, Susan shares her passion with her Born In Paper workshops, creates large wall art and sculptured light-filled paper bowls. If you love handmade papers, and creating something new, you will love this workshop.
