Pansies, 2022 (SOLD)

Inspired by the gorgeous Japanese Chiyogami paper I used as the backdrop.

Explanation of Chiyogami from Shepherd Bookbinders, London

To create a sheet of Chiyogami, each colour is printed individually with most patterns having 4 or 5 colours. Each sheet must be dried between applications and the next colour registered with fine precision. The base sheet is a machine made mixture of Kozo and Sulphite. Despite it's light weight this paper is strong and forgiving with good wet strength making it perfect for bookbinding, origami, boxmaking, collage and card making, covering furniture and walls, the creative possibilities are endless."
