petal bowl





This is where I'm at right now with the papier maché. I'm in love with this technique and just want to do more. The bowl is paperthin and yet quite sturdy, the glue making it stable.

I'm off to Stavanger, Norway, early tomorrow morning. Invited by the norwegian Grafill association to speek on Thursday evening and to hold a bookbinding workshop Friday and Saturday. Also speaking on Thursday is the norwegian illustrator and author Stian Hole, an amazing artist that works with collage, illustration and photoshop.
I'm getting nervous...

  1. I love your papier-mache bowl - it is so delicate, it is good to return to a medium after a break - it takes on a new life. I really like these.
