Altering recycled paper

Since I've been busting US economy too frequently lately I made decision to spend at least less money on paper. Well, paper is essential in my art so I had to look for the alternative. Recycled paper appeared to be good idea. Adding texture and painting the large pieces of paper is a messy and time consuming job but I'm happy with the results.

They're all gorgeous, it makes me want to get out my paints again. Love the third one down, that slight greeny hue is my cup of tea.
