THE MAGIC OF THE THREE-STICK KITE

WITH MASTER KITE BUILDERS: ALI FUJINO, JOSE SAINZ AND SCOTT SKINNER

Dates: June 4 & 5, 2022

We are offering a two-day workshop with world renown kite builders, Jose Sainz and Scott Skinner, who will help us explore the artistic and aerodynamic variations of three-stick kite construction. We will learn which are the best papers to use with these handmade kites. Ali Fujino, Seattle water-based style print artist, will lead a class and show us how to create non-traditional papers for kites.

On Saturday, June 4th Ali Fujino, Seattle water-based style print artist, will lead a class on how to create non-traditional papers for kites.

Sunday, June 5th – Kite Construction and Building 

On Sunday, June 5^th join Scott Skinner and Jose Sainz as they teach us how to create their “three-stick magic” paper and bamboo kites. Scott and Jose will share their distinct styles when building the ‘three stick’ kites. Scott starts with the American traditional Barn Door kite and finds many variations using three straight sticks. Jose starts with a much more organic shape made simply with two curved sticks and one straight one. The possibilities for original kite design become endless!

Each participant will receive a gift from Scott’s collection of handmade/printed papers.  

For the two-day workshop with Ali, Jose & Scott – $150.00. One adult with one child 12 years and older can participate for one workshop fee.

Background: A steamroller event is rooted in the printing of large-scale woodblocks carved by local artists and community members. We bring the steamroller and print pre-carved blocks throughout the day on Tyvek paper. For this event, we will be printing 40” diameter mandala sets. Each set is comprised of three parts: a center, an inner ring and an exterior ring. Participants can choose which portion they would like to carve. On the day of the event, we will combine the individual parts to create a completed mandala print. We will mix and match the blocks all day long until we have exhausted the possibilities.

Why a mandala shape?  In the past, we have printed individual large scale woodblocks. During these quarantine times, we thought printing a symbol that is commonly found across cultures could help bring us back together as a community. Mandalas have historically been used as a means to orient (re-orient) oneself through a ritual or a devotional act. Maybe such a collaborative creative act might help to rebuild a sense of community? Why not?!

Subject matter? Each individual had creative control of their section of the mandala. Printmakers historically have had a long history as a democratic inclusive creative community. All voices, experiences and points of view were welcome.

In this class students will learn the ancient art of Japanese paper marbling, known as Suminagashi, and Japanese bookbinding. The first session will cover the basic techniques of Suminagashi and students will create their own marbled paper. The next session will go over different stab-binding stitches and students will create a set of traditional Japanese-bound books using their marbled paper for the covers.

Two Day workshop begins Saturday, April 25th, 2020. Class limited to six participants.
