After reading an article in Cloth,Paper Scissors I was eager to give this concept a go. Wabi Sabi is all about the things around you, in your dreams, in your house, what you see when you go for a walk.
This canvas takes me back to my childhood - I grew up at the seaside - loved it and still misss it a lot and love to go back there as often as I can.
I covered my canvas with texture paste then coloured it with colour wash. I made markings and the word with my palette knife and the end of my paintbrush. I added dried emptied tea bags to creat more texture and finished off with the little bird stamp.
Its the first time I've tried it and am pleased with the result - I can see me doing more of these
Fantastic piece Hilda, it looks really tactile with all those brush strokes and textures
