Recycled Art

Here's a neat idea from Etsy I've been wanting to try for a while. It's a tutorial about fusing plastic bags together for use in recycled artwork. I'm not interested in sewing them into carry-alls but rather using them as elements in paintings. Virginia Fleck uses plastic bags in her mandala artwork and it's stunning. I was glad to have the opportunity to see her work when I visited my brother and sister in Corpus Christi over the holidays.
