While in MN....walking the path to the North Point I was searching for new summer shapes. Found alot of cool thistles. Had to wrap in numerous leaves to break loose as the prickles were dangerous. My favorite part of the experience? My niece was with me and while curious about what I was doing, didn't give me the *you're a crazy artist* look I'm used to getting.
Stencils and masks made from tyvek or acetate. Will carve stamps next. Are you claiming some new shapes of your own?
