Inspiration for Pop-Up Now II
ASyou continue conceiving and creating your new books for the Pop-Up Now II exhibition, here are two fun ways to get inspired for your own feats of “paper engineering.”
Playing with Pop Ups: The Art of Dimensional, Moving Paper Designs by Helen Hiebert
Many of you know of Helen’s work. As a former Oregonian she was a regular at gallery events, plus we’ve carried Helen’s work in gallery inventory for many years. She has written several paper how-to books, the most recent serving as timely inspiration. Purchase Helen’s book on her web site and be sure to subscribe to her Sunday Paper email newsletter—a must for all fans of paper art.
Paper Play: A Video Featuring Sally Blakemore
A delightful video starring world-renowned paper artist Sally Blakemore comes to us via VIMBY and Incredible Films. Sally has been featured in past shows here at 23 Sandy and she is a dynamo, both in her books (think NASCAR pop-up) and in that awesome personality that makes her books sparkle. Watch the full video here.
