Paper

About this book

"Papermaking is a craft unchanged for centuries. Still carried out today by artisans in small studios, the art of hand papermaking has become increasingly popular over the last few decades. There are seemingly no limits to the artistic versatility of what can be done with paper - from creating beautiful sheets embedded with flowers, to "painting" pictures with pulp, to making elaborate sculptures. Paper is a material that has many hues and textures and an extraordinary ability to absorb or reflect light. In the hands of an artisan, paper takes on an irresistible sensuality."--BOOK JACKET.
