Where’s the paper?

Lady of Spring...

Hey all,

I have a confession.  I’m a paper addict.

Well, maybe not that dire, so perhaps I’m just a Paper Enthusiast.  Yes, a Paper Enthusiast!

What’s that? Why? Because I have tons of paper stored up ready to become paintings.  Artists are notorious for being disorganized, and I try to avoid that tar trap as much as I can.  I’ve got a separate attache case for only my paper, and within that case I’ve got little sticky notes bent over the different papers I want to seperate, along with the type of paper and how many.  Sounds good and organized eh? Well, it usually works out, but not always.

= New Paintings!

 This sucker is about 25″x  32″ and painted with Watercolor on Mulberry Paper.  If you know a thing or two about paper, Mulberry paper is extremely thin and fragile.  It’s practically like dying the paper, as the reverse side looks nearly the same, just a little lighter.  It’s always fun to stay up all night and paint, and as of right now, I’m not sleepy and don’t plan of sleeping until later tonight.  So damn productive today… Now, off to work on the Graphic Novel!
