My teabag art for today was inspired by Sue Kemnitz art

My last teabag for about a month - we leave tonight for the UK with our two mothers!  I decided I didn't want the pressure of having to do one everyday while we are away.  I'll just try to do some paintings in my travel art journal.  This was an unused teabag primed with clear gesso and painted with watercolor and gouache.  Details added with black ink pen and prisma watercolor pencils.  This was inspired by the art of Sue Kemnitz.

My teabag art for today.

My teabag art for today is a mixed media piece.  This was a used teabag primed with clear gesso.  The background was done with watered down dylusions paints and then I tore out a strip and a circle from an old gelli print and drew and cut out some hearts and sewed them on with my sewing machine.  I added bits of crochet yarn and cheesecloth.  I also did some doodling in the background with black ink and white posca pen.

Another Art Journal Page Completed

Another Art Journal page completed in my small mont marte journal.  The background was painted with black gesso.  I then stenciled the butterfly with white gesso using a large stencil I have from the Crafter's Workshop TCW206.  Then using rose Quartz, Pomegranate see, and funky fuchsia Dylusions paints, I did a color fade over the white gesso through the stencil.  I used iridescent medium through a Heidi Swapp stencil in some areas of the background and then did some asemic writing in the background with white gel pen.  The title is from the Dina Wakley Stamp set Scribbly insects.

My teabag art for today. This was just from my imagination

My teabag art for the day.  This is just from my imagination (that's supposed to be bougainvillea).  This was an unused teabag primed with clear gesso and painted with watercolor and gouache.  It looks like it's falling down! Oh Well.
