Description
Susan Pogány’s interest in marbled paper was sparked by her collection of antiquarian books. After taking a workshop with Peggy Skycraft in Oregon, Pogány moved home to Lawrence, Kansas, where she developed a mastery of marbling technique and developed her own style. Pogány, active 1977–98, sold papers commercially and licensed designs to companies such as JC Penney and Hallmark. She also received commissions from publishers Alfred A. Knopf, Harper Collins, and Random House.
