Paper Self - Jade & Turquoise

August 2017.
Two dynastic self-portraits (Qing Dynasty, Manchurian-style collars) in graphite and with chiyogami for the robes.  
Quick fix: I used a hole-puncher to make the 'beads' for the turquoise necklace!
Pictured here is my most trusty pair of scissors.  I think it is as old as I am.
