Handmade Paper
"For years I drew and painted on a three ply rag paper that I bought at David Davis in New York City. Around 1990, I took a workshop with Angel Soler of Ft. Lauderdale, FL on making paper, and have been romantically intrigued with handmade papers ever since. In the beginning I used cottons, banana peals, garlic, corn husks, carrots, and any other fibrous material I could find. Eventually, I started looking for outlets and have used a variety of oriental bark, (wood) papers that I purchased from Central Supply in New York City. There is something a out painting and drawing on a rough surface. Oh yes! I love rough edges."
