This is a textured paper with molding paste through a daisy stencil. I plan on adding lots and lots of hand embroidery to this piece after backing it with felt. I have a photo of a gnarled bare branched tree which I plan on using as inspiration. I love the colours which have emerged from using pastels then waxing over to seal them. The daisies were painted individually then waxed again.
I´m not sure how I´m going to finish this piece of silk rod paper, but will probably mount it on a mount board. The next lesson in this workshop is experimenting with gummy silk cocoons fibres and deep etched wooden stamp blocks.
Happy Birthday today to my nephew Simon!
