Artist’s Statement: “Coronation Series of handmade paper sculptures came early in my papermaking explorations. They commemorate the opening up of the work (figuratively and literally), a way of seeing and responding to the immediacy of paper. This was the attraction to the new medium and its joy. The paper was made in my studio of cotton fibers, dried, painted with watercolors, torn apart and in a small way and later to grow into room size environments.” Budget: $760
