This paper was made with any kind of brown paper I could get my hands on, leftover plant fibers, and lots of dried basil blossoms. It smells nice. The paper was a little bigger than the cover, but I decided not to cut it down to fit. I like it sticking out. The cover was…

Finally took a few photos tonight. This one is definitely for me. It is made with both recycled handmade paper and commercial writing paper. The cover is made with an envelope that Rice sent to me – too precious not to reuse! The binding was a bit tricky because I used lots of different scraps…

It’s not often that I get photos of me, so here I am in all my glory. Susanne’s daughter Sophie helped me break in the new camera. Susanne’s husband John fed me scuppernong grapes from their vines. The paper is made of corn shucks and abaca fiber.

In this woodcut print I was experimenting with raising the natural grain in the background by rubbing between the lines…

My first woodcut print. 7 3/4″ x 4″, oil on mulberry paper. One of an edition of eight. I will probably be developing this one further. It came from a painting I did back in December 2005.
