All pieces are hand-carved from layers of laminated paper-board then painted with acrylic and finished with acrylic varnish. The designs are contrasted by the random texture and colour created by working directly onto a rough surface and would appeal to individuals as well as being suitable for an office environment. Work is offered framed or unframed.
