WORKSHOP: Fabric Maché Vessels

Fabric Maché Vessels

Join artist Judy Paolini for a hands-on, one-day workshop where you'll explore the unique and creative process of making fabric maché vessels. Judy will guide you step by step through the techniques she uses to transform fabric into beautifully textured, one-of-a-kind forms. As you shape and layer your fabric, you’ll learn about design, structure, and finishing techniques to create a sturdy yet delicate form. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have one or two handmade vessels to take home, where they will continue to dry and cure. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced maker, this class is a wonderful way to experiment with new materials and discover an exciting approach to textile-based sculpture in a fun and supportive environment. Judy is an artist and designer living in Palm Springs and Port Townsend, WA. Currently she works primarily in enamels, textiles, metals and wood, often combining materials. Her work is informed by her career in graphic design, the beauty of the California desert, the forests of the Pacific Northwest, and a love of modernist design.
