I thought my recent “I Love You” painting might be more interesting if I gave it an aged appearance to match the cute note my daughter wrote me many years ago. So I brewed up some tea today, soaked a sheet of watercolor paper in it, placed several teabags on it in an attempt to give it a mottled effect, and let it dry. Here’s the result. I think it’s an improvement over my first attempt. What do you think?

Great improvement! Looks like it was stored in a Mother’s box of childhood treasures.
Thanks, mom!
I love this site very much.
Thank you. I’m glad you like it!
