My abstract prints are composed of flat areas of color on Japanese paper that is made specifically for hand printing using watercolors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The quality of the paper plays a key role. The paper is made of long fibers that are resistant to friction from the baren, the only printing tool used instead of a traditional press.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I printed the watercolor on four strips of paper simultaneously, as many times as necessary for the color to penetrate each fiber of the paper. When the paper was saturated with color on both sides, I assembled them together to give them rhythm. Thanks to the dampness of the glued tape that joins the strips together, the print relaxes. As it dries, the glued tape and paper find a point of balance that gives the print its flexibility and weight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
