Cotton has always been my preferred choice of fiber to make paper for my etchings. It is very versatile and can be used for watercolor, drawing, writing, printing etc.
As much as I love working with cotton, I find the paper to be a bit bland. Hence, I experimented with Kenaf fiber and I am very pleased with the outcome. The paper has a beautiful natural tone to it which I am fond of.
This print is a result of my love for Papermaking, Printmaking and Photography.
