works on paper
I've been thinking a lot about works on paper (and how much I love them). Maybe it's because there's this studied casualness to them. They don't take themselves too seriously; afterall, it's not like they're done on hardy canvas. Paper is delicate and easily lost. Here are 4 of my favorites, each of them a different approach.
