Painting on linen

I’m in that working mode where it feels like I’m thinking about art constantly, whether awake or asleep. I want to be in the studio all the time, though of course I cannot.
I did get a chance to be in the studio a little bit this weekend, and so I painted this design on a piece of linen that has an old embroidery pattern on it, complete with instructions printed on the linen itself. I got several vintage patterned linens recently on ebay - some were even partially embroidered. I’ll be using them in my work this summer for sure.
