I've just completed the cupboard door that I began during my presentation at the OEFFA conference. I dyed the door with dyes which I made from turmeric, purple cabbage, beets, onion peels and coffee. I then woodburned freely around the dyed areas, interpreting the colors as a play of light and dark with a yellow cascade of floating lights flowing up the center. I added some painted highlights and texture then completed the piece by coating it with clear matte acrylic. I'm very happy with the finished piece, but can't pick a place to hang it in my home. I may try putting it on Etsy and see if anyone falls in love with it :)
