Artist Statement: These crosses I am sending you are made out of some specific paper and weaved together to make things. Also stained with coffee and it is also coated with a band roll on for gloss. Amazing isn't it? Just to let you know I have a teacher that is teaching me these things. I had help from Mr. Hutch. If he is not preaching the word of God he is weaving. He said he has been doing this for 20 years. God bless you and keep you in His love each day. Strengthening you, guiding you, and watching over you.
