GESSO

 
 

This piece had Chinese writing, tea and coffee, and a butterfly.
I cut  them up and added some of Times distressed ink with
a sponge then spritzed some water in my palm and flicked it on.
 I wiped the gessoed part lightly with a wet wipe..
I used tea bag, worn lipstick and shabby shutters...
