Handmade Paper Art by Paul Tury is the newest exhibit in the Town of Duck Rotating Art Show. The exhibit will be on display Monday-Friday (excluding holidays) from 9:00 a.m.- 4:30 p.m. November 1, 2024 – January 22, 2025 in the first floor conference room of the Town Hall. Paul’s artistic passion is making handmade paper in his home studio from commercially available and natural sources. The papers he uses are made from cotton, abaca, hemp, recycled paper, recycled clothing and natural items such as flowers, seaweed, herbs, and other plants. He will frequently dye the paper pulp in a variety of bright colors which complement and contrast with the natural colors of his raw materials. This process creates a wide spectrum of colors, shades, and textures. He then uses this paper to build 3-D art work.
