        Colleen Stratton’s collection of watercolor and ink illustrations of the Anam Caras are beautifully printed on the world’s finest archival papers. Colleen has a bit of a paper fetish. She loves gorgeous, heavyweight, watercolor papers, especially those with deckle (torn) edges.  Her favorite paper mill is Hahnemühle, a German company that has been in business since 1584. Their papers are 100% cotton, matte, archival paper that is sustainably sourced and made with green energy.
