I found this fine thin washi paper under some bond in my desk. Did I buy it? Was it given to me? Was it a free sample?
Hard to say. But it is distinctive and just what I wanted to start a new year of painting.
Every year I paint for my exhibition that happens in October.
By having the exhibition I interrupt my painting. Between the exhibition and the demands of the university I am away from actual painting long enough to forget how to paint, which is a good thing.
I can start to learn again. I’m hoping this new old washi will help me with this year’s discoveries.
