I was allowed to use this photo that I took for this website.

Here is the place where makes the largest handmade paper in Japan. I also used one for my sumi ink art and the piece was sold in NY last year. I appreciate Mr.Heizaburo a lot. The materials were hemp and kozo, and this kind of paper is often used for Japanese paintings.
