The Dragonfly by TwoCoolTexans


Here is my new piece. It is done entirely with handpainted and handmade papers, stitched together and mounted onto a cradled hardboard canvas.

Glenda, what lovely soothing colors, very nice piece. Is the support you used, the kind that is all wood, almost like a box top?

Yes, that's it. It's called a cradled hardboard canvas. I love them because you can stamp on it and all and you can get a full image. Thanks for the nice words about my piece.

very pretty! I wish I could see it in person to see the textures of the papers better. But a very cool idea using handmade papers and beautiful colors.
