these are very interesting to me-- not familiar with cast paper -- but assume it is hand made paper cast into forms-- these are very appealing to me.
Oh Kate,
these are so fragile, detailed, delicate.....beautiful! Sigh!!
Oh my. They're wonderful. The first one especially feels tender, precious and yet dynamic.
Stunning, mesmerizing, and so delicate and beautiful.
Great to see my old favourites as well as the new ones!
i'm happy now kate... thank you...
: )

layers...the paper I use is not handmade. It is cotton linter (which is good for paper casting because of its short fibres) and I soak it and make my own pulp for casting using a blender.
all...thanks for your kind comments!
