“CARTASAN®, is the mindful blending of carta, the Italian word for ‘paper’, and artisan, ‘a person who is skilled at making things by hand’. ”
Paper artist Marilyn McRae creates original, expressive works of art by hand sculpting reclaimed magazine paper. By hand she cuts, tears, folds and singes magazine paper into her vision.
