The silkscreened Red Sea Fish, Gold and Black on red Lokta paper is inspired by Mithila art, a traditional painting skill of many Nepalese women, passed down from generation to generation. The Lokta paper is handmade from the fiber of Nepal's paper plant, Daphne cannabina. The sheet has four deckled edges and is long-fibered, strong, and beautiful. Lokta paper is completely natural, acid-free, and tree-free. Lokta is easy to work with and versatile and is a favorite of boxmakers, bookbinders, book artists, collage artists, printers, and calligraphers.
