In the Spring of 1996 my daughter, Sienna, led me up the deepest gorge on Earth, to the walled Kingdom of Lo in Nepal's Mustang district, on the border with Tibet. I was inspired by the natural colors of the landscape as well as a thousand foot long wall of boulders etched with Tibetan prayers -mani - that was washed in streaks of sacred mineral colors. I made hand formed, pulp-painted sheets of paper. A book began to take shape.
