10 Leaves 6x6" More painting and stitching on tea bags. Here the artwork is done totally with tea bags collaged to a thin base paper then painted with watercolors and hand stitched. The tea bags accept the paint really well and the stained marks and texture from the tea is a bonus. I cut through the tea bags in some areas to expose the white base paper. I really struggled with those white recessed areas. They were just too white. In the end I used some colored pencil and shellac to tone them down. For sale on my Etsy site for $65. |
