Echoing Water

Pulp painting, 24” x 36”. Cotton. Art ships framed in a light wood frame on a beige mat. Framed size approximately 32” x 44”.

The best description of pulp painting I’ve seen is from paper artist and author Lynn Sures. https://lynnsures.com

“Colored pulp is a liquid medium that consists of finely beaten plant (cellulose) fibers suspended in water, and colored with pigments or dyes. Depending on how it’s processed, when it’s dry, it takes on diverse levels of translucency or opacity, and it can be soft to the the touch or even hard enough to resemble and feel like a drum skin. It can be cast in a mold to form a rigid object when dry or start as a thin, flexible wet sheet that will accept the addition layers of different colored pulps.”
