I was asked to make a sign board for the coming show. Usually they offer me some sheets of paper, but they are all machine made. 

So this time I looked for a big and good sheet of handmade paper made in the village in my house. Hemp paper made by Heizaburo Studio !

I know I cannot stop doing this once I start, so before getting ready I decided not to do more than four or five sheets.

Glad that I have enough space.

For washi, Japanese paper, I need to see how ink spread. The variation of the thickness and how ink spreads make everything, I think. 

Oh my Janglish !
