​Stephanie Lerma is a New Mexico native and has been making paper for the past twenty years. Her art works  involve the process of  accumulation which often contain thousands of pieces of paper in each finished piece.  For her paper works, she individually watercolors, or paints with wax, or casts the papers into forms before the piece is assembled. The art always involves the transformational quality that occurs as that  single unit of paper accumulates and morphs into a unified mass of color and movement.
