Handmade Paper > Paper Paintings

I love seeing turtles in the lakes and ponds around my New Hampshire home. David Carroll's writings about and drawings of turtles inspired this unique turtle paper painting.

I sprayed pigmented cotton pulp through multiple stencils and multiple layers onto a base sheet of kozo paper to make this painting.

The finished piece is mounted in a white cotton rag mat of archival quality.
