Handmade Paper > Shaped Paper

A plaster mold was used to form a gampi paper cast of a red oak leaf. The gampi casting is embedded in paper made from over-wintered Siberian iris from my garden surrounded by a kozo amate (bark paper) frame.

The assemblage is mounted in a walnut frame, made by Will Lehmann.
