art cloth

A couple of months ago I started working on a 5 yard piece of art cloth. Several techniques have been used on it already and today I added another one. Out of freezer paper I cut funky spiral shapes. Ironed the freezer paper on top of the fabric:

And applied paintsticks to it. I used blue, teal, green and silver. Brushed the paintsticks over the fabric. Removed the paper. This is how it looks now:

I like the ghostly effect it has because not everywhere the same amount of paintsticks shows up. At least one more technique will be used on this cloth. I know what I want to do, but the fabric has to cure first. Depending on that result, it might be the final one, or maybe another might be needed.
