One of the many reasons I love paper is the vast a One of the many reasons I love paper is the vast array of colours you can find. I’m amazed at how many I’ve accumulated over the years! On my cutting mat today are the colours for layer three of a piece I’m working on. I’m (hopefully) not replicating any colours in this one... . . #Paper #paperart #paperartist #paperartistcollective #woven #geometry #colour #pattern #handmade #wip #possibilitiesofpaper

This one is for a @paperartistcollective collaboration and I’m starting the long process of editing my colour palette! I love this bit but it can take a while and often I think I’m there and then I throw the lot aside and start again 😂 Anyone else take ages choosing colours? . . #Paper #paperart #paperartist #paperartistcollective #woven #geometry #colour #pattern #handmade #wip #possibilitiesofpaper
Day 31 and the last @paperartistcollective month i Day 31 and the last @paperartistcollective month in paper! Today is “goals and motivation”. It’s hard to be motivated at the moment but I’m trying to use my sketchbook more and my goal is to add a shop to my website so I can try out selling my work online. Let’s see what 2021 brings... It’s been amazing to see the range of paper art being shared through the challenge. Thanks to everyone on here who follows my work and gives me encouragement. And hello to new people! . . #Amonthinpaper #paperartist #paperart #paperartistcollective #paper #maker #artist #instagramchallenge #madefrompaper #january2021
