Native Soil by Pamela Wood
"Soil, an important feature of the US southwest, is expressed through use of my original handmade paper and hand carving of lettering on the cover and spine." - Pamela Wood
The artist found this printing of “Native Soil” at a Dard Hunter trade fair where Southwest School of Art and Craft had the unbound set of pages for sale. She chose a binding of her handmade paper.
