Teabags make for an unusual canvas!
The paintings are inspired by various destinations across the world.
While it is quite common for artists to be ingenious in their approaches, this artist has found a whole new level of novelty - painting on teabags.
Instead of disposing of used teabags, Ruby Silvious, a Philippines-born, US-based artist is regenerating them into intricate pieces of arts with her masterful strokes and watercolours.
Here are some of her masterpieces which the artist tweeted from her account:
On the occasion of International Women's Day which falls on March 08, she tweeted, "Gabriel Metsu's Woman celebrates with Ben & Jerry's Empower Mint #InternationalWomensDay".
