This piece is two separate sheets of paper. The one on the left is rectangular and has a brown, cyan, and mustard marbled pattern. The sheet on the right is slightly larger, and is varying shades of greyish blue and white, resembling a stormy sky.

"[Left sheet] Abaca and corn fibers cast over recycled hand dyed papers and pulp painted. 

[Right sheet] Abaca paper with Procion dye 

The theme “Blue” resonated with me because of its association with water. A very precious resource, I am conscious that Paper-making does use/waste a lot of water. Some of it I am able to reuse and recycle, but try my utmost to use or waste as little as possible. What are your thoughts on this aspect of paper making? 

Blues are not my favorite color palette, warm colors creep into my work almost all the time. So this has also been an interesting aspect of the exchange for me."
