Chris Tessnear created the altered purse with a Woolf theme. It is decorated with the writer’s image, art paper printed with a variety of text and Woolf’s last name spelled out in block-shaped beads. Three similarly decorated tags strung together with a pen, a pencil and a pair of eyeglasses are part of the piece.
Tessnear started her art career as a copy and color book artist, then took to watercolors, and now uses mixed media to create collages, altered art and altered books. Her Woolf piece was published in Somerset Studio, a stamping and paper crafting publication.
