Description
Don Guyot, active 1969–2000, was a librarian at the Seattle Public Library when he began to study bookbinding, restoration, and marbling with Rodney Oleson at the University of Washington. His specialty was traditional water-based marbling in both Western and suminagashi techniques. During his influential career he taught countless workshops across North America and established Colophon Book Arts Supply, the first American company to produce and market marbling supplies and equipment, which is still in operation today.
