New Work --Small Panels/Samples

Currently I'm at work on ideas for new, large-scale paper panels that will be embellished with metal leaf. Many collectors want to view work samples to understand the technique and look of using paper in this way, and to visualize how a large panel might look in their home or place of business. Additionally, it is important that these samples be small works of art in themselves -- beautifully made to the same standard of a completed large piece. And if a collector desires to purchase a small piece, well, some certainly will be available! Stay tuned to see upcoming samples/small pieces.
