Stitch and Paper, 2020
tea and watercolor on paper, linen thread, mica, beeswax, double needle coptic bound 2 ½” h x 3” l x 2 ½” d ( spread open 6” diameter)
It’s a long process of tea staining paper, stitching, painting with indigo, placing mica, and more stitching but it’s meditative. Working to fill each page until I have something I can hold and turn the pages of is something I enjoy.
