I love this piece by Samantha Cheevers. Looking closely I can see the top half is something like a piece of old embossed wallpaper. The bottom section is painted then glued on top of the wallpaper.
Make your own:
Have a look around the house or garden for something of an interesting colour or texture. A newspaper, Easter egg foil, a piece of tree bark (found already fallen, not peeled from a trunk).
You've found your background!
Now find a drawing / painting / collage / photo you've already made, or make a new one.
Cut it out:
And stick on top of your found background:
