Papernoten is run from a small basement studio situated near the stunningly beautiful Young’s Bay in Astoria, Oregon. There, owner and artist, Lindsey Aarts, creates nature-based watercolor illustration and mixed media collages that focus on the regional flora, fauna, and landscapes that greet her daily. You can find Lindsey selling at the Astoria Sunday Market, teaching watercolor classes at the Columbia River Maritime Museum, or spending time outdoors enjoying the Pacific Northwest. She currently has a small collection of art and greeting cards available at RiverSea Gallery in downtown Astoria.
