47"x 47", 172 rusted tea bags sewed together,Venetian plaster, oil paint, graphite and cold wax.
I have been calling it "The Beast" while I worked on it :-), but I needed another name, I grabbed a book and opened it at random, pointed to a sentance and it said "The Art of Tea", I am not making that up.
It is a perfect title since it was made with teabags! The Universe is amazing :-). If you click on the image then click again you will see all the yummy detail.
I love to hear your thoughts.
XOXO

The art of tea .... makes me think of the Japanese tea ceremonies ...which makes me think of meditation.... which brings me back to your painting. Beautiful work, Annie!
