Chalk on black paper.
Brown material frame with black material & card hand prints (own and baby daughter's - at around 8 months old). Thin translucent mesh material over picture protects from smudging).
Used carrot juice spray to quickly stain paper around baby daughter's hand, from which stencils were made to create the final material hand prints.

On the left, threads sewn on to cloth.

In the middle, a triptych style; pen and ink on the left panel, pencil crayon in the middle panel, and on the right panel, wax over oil pastels with scratched lines to reveal colours.

On the right, the original of Henri Rousseau's 'Tiger in a Tropical Storm, Suprised' (1891), from which these were reproduced/inspired.
