Description
Excerpted from the website:
- I was introduced to papermaking whilst on a Constructed Textiles Course in Hereford and was fascinated by its versatility. It was here that I first began using pre-dyed paper pulp to paint with, beginning with very abstract forms, body images and then creating my well-known faces. These are inspired by medieval wall-paintings and ancient frescos; the layers of paint and texture in different states of decay and preservation.I do not plan out the image beforehand except for the colours of the paper.
