Teacup & saucer, created from collaged vintage maps and various patterned papers
The background is a photocopied sketch of one of my teacups and saucers, and I then used vintage map pages and various patterned papers to create collage details of the cup and saucer pattern.
I deliberatly left most of the saucer plain except for one flower and a couple of leaves, otherwise it would have become too busy if everything was collaged. I also put a patterned background in behind some of the teacup and saucer to help it stand out from the white page.
I like the collage effect and it made a nice change from painting!
