This is a charcoal drawing (with a china marker for the red lines) on Japanese paper. The paper has the mildest green-moss tint which does not show in the photograph. The subject is mother and child. The edges of this handmade Japanese paper, or washi, has ragged, or deckled, edges either from the traditional papermaking process or from a manual technique called chigiri-e. This original deckle edge is created naturally when paper pulp is spread on a screen and dried, leaving a rough edge when the frame is removed.
