We have completed construction and are now able to offer in person classes from our studio

 
 

Our studio is located 18 miles from Lake Tahoe in Gardnerville, Nevada.

With a little help from friends, we built this space for the creation and restoration of books , paper and textile marbling, editorial projects and artistic experimentation.

It is also a place to hold small classes for students with whom I wish to share my 30 years experience in playing with paper, paints, type, board and glue.

Class Philosophy and Prices

After a decade of teaching at the San Francisco Center for the Book and other venues I have learned that the more I teach, the more I learn,. If you learn, play and are happy, Iā€™m happy too.
