I am an artist in Philadelphia.

I would like to learn how to achieve translating my work using moss as a covering

Answer

I spoke with you this morning about the mosses that you would like to incorporate into your works.  Here is the book I told you about, which is available in our McLean Library. It is available  to PHS members through our McLean Library, among other sources.

As to your question about thicknesses of sheet moss, there doesn't seem to me to be much if any.  There are various cultivars of sheet moss, but I didn't see anything about different thicknesses of the plants themselves,  although different cultivars may grow a bit higher or thicker than others. You would be able to buy sheets of different  lengths and widths.  Take a look online to see what is available and where to get it. 

This sounds like a wonderful project.  Good luck with it.  I hope we will hear about it so that we can see the results.
