Additional Information: Many paper clay artists also work with pure paper.

For example the later Carol Farrow who is credited with inventing it in the UK, taught, exhibited and wrote about paper clay, also was a paper maker.

In some countries paper clay is now approximately a third of all clay now used in classrooms and set studios.

More details on her and many other paper clay leaders, events, plus journal articles on the medium can be found at http://www.grahamhay.com.au/paperclay.html.
