Artist and Papermaker Helen Hiebert with Jamie Thome

To receive updates on when our ABH Conversations are available, please subscribe to our newsletter at https://artistsbookhouse.org/newsletter 

Helen Hiebert Studio’s mission is to share and expand the love of hand paper making and paper crafts with newcomers and to expand the knowledge of experienced artists through artwork, online and in-person classes, retreats, videos, how-to books, a blog and a podcast. 

Helen Hiebert is obsessed with paper. She enjoys working with, designing and making paper by hand, and loves to develop projects to share! Helen runs a professional paper making studio high up in the Colorado Rocky mountains where she creates artist’s books and unique handmade papers, designs paper projects, and develops and records online classes. 

Every time Helen discovers a new paper, her imagination is sparked. First, her mind starts to envision new creations, but the magic happens when she starts manipulating the material in her hands: cutting, folding, crumpling, tearing, weaving and more. Her hope is that we can share the joy of making paperwork fun and inspirational.

Artists Book House Conversations are bite-sized video conversations between host Jamie Thome and various book artists, illustrators, cartoonists, writers, poets, librarians and book collectors. This effort also allows us too deepen our connection to our community, both here in the Chicagoland area and all around the globe.
