Japanese Paper Day

Had an extraordinary day yesterday. Took a 7 hour drive to and from Toronto Canada to look at ‘paper'. Not just any paper but Japanese paper. And not just any Japanese paper but paper handmade by a living Japanese National Treasure named Hosho Iwano. This very special Kozo Paper, made from the Mulberry bush, will soon be used to make my Palladium/platinum prints. Stay tuned.

Thanks to Sigrid for her time and attention yesterday. Sigrid is the Fine Paper Specialist at #TheJapanesePaperPlace. She was very helpful answering my questions and allowing me time to make good decisions. Thanks Sigrid.
