Coffee Filter Flowers
I was searching Pinterest for art ideas and found a good project for visually impaired artists, as it is tactile. Sai, one of our members, has now made a big bunch of coffee filter flowers.
We used filters which are paper circles. I had been given some but they proved too large for my coffee maker!
Some of the filters were painted freehand while others were soaked in diluted acrylic paint. Â We used green plant ties for stems and made a few plasticine leaves.
We hope the colourful results may inspire other artists to try this technique.
