Martha Starke

I have a passion for making things — stained glass windows, hand-carved ceramic tiles, jewelry, hand-bound books, quilts, dollhouse miniatures, letterboxes (google it!). I have every tool known to man for making art, from glue guns to glass grinders. Truly, I am happiest when I am creating.
The medium that stays with me, though, is handmade paper. I have been playing with pulp since 1992, creating greeting cards, paper sculptures, wedding invitations, place cards and favors, thank you notes and custom items. A few years ago, I began adding wildflower seeds to my pulp so that you can recycle my papers into your garden after use.
My papers go hand in hand with my love for botanicals. I grow them, press them and make whimsical figures out of them. You can find my original framed “Petal People” at Valley Artisans Market along with cards that feature digital prints of some of my favorite Petal People.
I am obsessed. I hope you will enjoy my obsession and feel the passion behind everything I make.
