Textile Postard Project Week # 59


November 11th - 17th 2018

Whole postcard shows the spirals working their way across the rocks.

 This is a third postcard made from a small section of the quilt Ancient Art. I just loved the fabrics I have used. It serves as a great recognition of Aboriginal Art of the Outback. 


The reverse side of this postcard shows rusted paper. It is fun to rust paper using chemicals and the results are generally very successful  (not sure where the blue colour comes from on this piece. I suspect the paper may have been over-dyed after another experiment.) The chemicals are Ferris Sulfate, Caustic Soda and T Bags.
If you are interested in learning more about rusting paper please leave a message or get in contact with me.
