Change: The Evolution of Paper

Changes around the world and particularly in Asia are having a huge impact on our brush painting community. Materials manufactured overseas are changing due to environmental concerns vocalized by the West, the economy and overall a new work ethic. Raw materials that made up a multi-generation tradition in making color, brushes and especially paper are becoming scarcer, driving manufacturers to either stop making goods or more recently, changing their recipes to work with the materials that are readily available.
