“UNFiLTERED LAB”
playful prints on handmade paper from locally grown plants.

Using high fiber paper made from garlic stems donated to Alicia and Gloria by the River Street Gardeners in North Adams MA. Gloria created this series of prints intentionally using a wide range of themes and variations. She gave herself free license of expression from familiar places to the outer spaces of abstraction. Local places, people, animals, objects, free hand typography, you name it !! It’s all there and unfiltered.
