Original Mini Paintings on Handmade Paper
I made many drawings and took reference photos as I sat in the Hoh Rainforest. Once I returned to the studio, I created this series of small 6x8.5in original paintings on 100% cotton handmade Italian paper. I used liquid acrylic, dyes and pen and ink to create the images on the handmade paper.
Each piece of paper has a smooth surface with four beautiful deckled edges. I bought the blue dye that I used for the background of each image in Bali during my artist residency. It reacts to sunlight to change from a light grey violet to the rich blue you see on the finished image. I love the idea that just like climate change were not totally sure what the results of our actions will be.

I care about how my art practice impacts the environment. I'm pleased to say that all the packaging for my smaller prints (backing, protective sleeves, etc.) are all recyclable, and are also made from recycled materials. I source them from Canadian companies, and I also use a Canadian printing shop to produce them. I really truly care about producing quality products to share with you.
