Joyce Pommer In The Studio

My new studio space in Long Island City , NY a wonderful place to create. Quiet with lots of room for me. I work on a number of pieces at one time off the wall and can have them all in view to go from one to another. Using this process helps me get new ideas. I have lots of different materials of handmade papers & fabrics as I love texture and the unusual surfaces they can create in a piece.
