Reinventing your grandma’s favorite pastime, mixed media artist Ana Teresa Barboza ditches the flowered landscapes in favor for scenes that may not be appropriate for kids. A combination of fabric cut-outs, embroidery, and graphite give her pieces a 3D quality, turning the illusion of a lion kissing/eating your face all the more frightening.
