This afternoon I placed a couple of orders for replacement supplies since my show has been extended through the end of January and folks who purchase work in December can pick it up at the end of December and I will need to make more work to fill in the empty spaces. Wow...what a run on sentence!
Tonight I have been sorting the paper stash into general piles/layers and when the new papers arrive I will sort the general piles down to colors. In the meantime here is what the process looked like. I love all of my papers!
the unsorted heap |
mixed papers with metallic threads or flakes |
tamarind, mango, raintree |
Thai marble |
mango, banana |
mixed assortment of odd papers that caught my eye at various times |
mixed assortment of what I call my neutral background papers |
another mixed assortment of heavier papers |
Unryu -- lots of colors |
there -- all generally sorted and stacked again |
