 My friend Sharon and I always happen upon some sort of papercasting piece whenever we go to an exhibit together, and the Friends of Calligraphy exhibition the other day was no exception (I also wrote about another papercasting we saw here.) And I always think afterward that I should try to find a class, but never get around to it. This time the signage about the papercasting in the show mentioned the teacher Joan Merrell, who has a gallery of work on her website, including this one to the right. She’s teaching a five-day intensive class on calligraphic papercasting in Boston next summer that is seriously tempting!

I agree that would be seriously tempting! I’ve done some wet embossing with calligraphy but never considered paper casting with letterforms.
WOW!
this is truly fabulous.
