This is a series all painted on handmade paper. The paper was made by my girlfriend Rachel Lechocki. In order to create each piece I first started by drawing an image than coloring it in with water color pencils then overlaid that with acrylic paints, gesso, and oil pastels. in order to seal the image and to preserve the paper I then use heavy clear gloss spray paints and coat the image on both sides for preservation. The paper becomes stiff and is then easy to mount or frame.
