These two awesome day sponsors sent in their donations while we were on the road and didn’t pick any particular city. So I chose the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, outside of Penland, for Marcia (Matt’s stepmom–Hi Marcia!)

We were lucky enough to host Marcia and Matt’s dad, Mike, for a few days last week, so I didn’t have a chance to post this drawing before then, but I hope y’all enjoy it!
My last-but-definitely-not-least sponsor is Mel Potter, my wonderful papermaking teacher and advisor at Columbia College. Again, Mel didn’t chose a particular city, so I picked an artifact from the Robert C Williams papermaking museum in Atlanta: a Dard Hunter watermark.

like a real watermark, it was a bit hard to photograph (I used metallic ink–as close as I could think of to “draw” a watermark), but I think I did pretty alright!
Mel, thank you so much, and I dearly look forward to working with you this fall! :)
& everyone else:
I’m contacting local places now, and hopefully will have a few more book & paper & community art places to showcase here. hooray! :)
