Helen Hiebert is a Colorado artist who constructs installations, sculptures, films, artists’ books, and works in paper using handmade paper as her primary medium. She teaches, lectures, and exhibits her work internationally and online, and is the author of the several how-to books about papermaking and papercrafts (her most recent is Weaving With Paper (Storey Publishing, 2025). Helen has an extensive network of paper colleagues around the world and her interest in how things are made (from paper) keeps her up-to-date on current paper trends, which she writes about in her weekly blog called The Sunday Paper. She interviews papermakers and paper artists on her podcast Paper Talk, and she holds two annual paper retreats (one in Taos, New Mexico) and papermaking master classes in her Red Cliff studio. https://helenhiebertstudio.com/
