Spring 2009 Ampersand

Spring 2009 AmpersandThe Spring 2009 Ampersand has just come out. (That’s the quarterly book arts journal I edit for the PCBA.) It’s got the third of three articles on papermaking by Ginger Burrell where among other things she writes about printing directly on handmade paper using an ink-jet printer and Golden Digital Grounds. One of the problems with ink-jets is that they really only print well on coated papers. Digital Grounds is an ink-receptive coating that can be applied to a variety of substrates, making them more amenable to ordinary ink. You can read more about it here.
You can see back issues of the Ampersand here.
