El Maguey

    El Maguey
    This is the handmade Twinrocker watercolor sheet I dyed with green tea.
    Watercolor & acrylic ink. 6" x 8"
    The colors are a little more subtle than the last one I did.
    The dyeing process was really easy,
    I just made a batch of really concentrated tea
    and submerged the sheet while the tea was still hot and left it there
    for approx. 30 minutes. I took it out, sandwiched it between two paper towels and left it there to dry for an hour or so. Same with the coffee.
    It's going to be very hard for me to go back to plain old white paper now :)
    Hope you're having a lovely weekend!
