mason and aimee

and julie mclaughlin's kozo dress

big ass paper, indeed!

no, it will be displayed differently,

but even armless

and legless

you get a sense of the grace and beauty of this piece.

tiny beads accent

charity fitting out ugly girl's hair
calculating how to best display this indigo dyed piece,

another of julie's garments

with a stairstep woven and dyed indigo bodice

leftover body parts

(what can i say?)

aimee and mason curated this show,

mason is hanging it and was in charge of this catalog.

the back cover below

shows my latest hortus siccus book.

i feel a bit like i'm

on the cover of the rolling stone!
and am in the community of fine paper artists.

where i stay when i'm here--

the other half is a wonderful big paper mill

way behind the zebra hide

and this

rather important and famous artists' book

by bill drendel lives here.

i was delighted to find it.

it's handmade paper heaven here in cleveland.
