en marche.
My foray into paper actually stemmed from my interest in lampshades.  I used to collect lampshades.  If I found a frame that was intact, I would turn it into a beautiful usable object.
I don’t collect them anymore, but on more than one occasion I have been asked to revive one.  So, over the years, I have perfected the art of recovering a lampshade with paper.
