Results of Variations on Handmade Paper













Jamie's paper was incorporated into the larger piece as part of a collection of knives, forks, and spoons. Using a stamp, she created a reverse design of the image with the foam sheet. The cutlery was colored with water color pencils.


Susan created her paper on a flat surface using colored glue. Just before her final sheets of kleenex, she added three fresh leaves. Their ghostly image is enhanced with watercolor pencil rubbings. 


Sue Anne used an enlarged picture of a key charm to build her multi-layered mold. The glue was colored and the inside of the key was painted with gold acrylic paint.
