[Aquanet] coffee staining paper

[Carol Wickenhiser-Schaudt]

Years ago an artist who painted the piece hanging next to mine in the 
Museum of Natural History (Smithsonian) had used coffee grounds.  He 
had painted a sunflower.  He piled wet coffee grounds into the center 
of the blossom and let them dry for several days before brushing them 
off.  It was a great effect.  Everyone I know who exhibits there 
tries to use only archival materials.
