What is unicorn paper? It is a creation I have come up with love and creativity. It’s cotton fabric with a special archival quality tissue paper and archival glue blend. Together it makes a special foundation that I can paint, watercolor, and sew on. I then mounted it to anything my imagination desires. The process is time consuming and delicate. Many sheets don’t make the cut and I use the scraps to make my travel journals. I hope you love these pieces as much as I do!
