This time not fiber related :-), but such fun to do. On
Mickey Bond's blog I found this technique and as we had a couple of cold nights last week I decided to give it a try. On the first picture you see the small canvases (4"x4") with globs of Golden Fluid Acrylic and Golden Medium where I placed them outside.
Temperatures during the nights were around 25 degrees F. I left the canvases there for 3 days. And look how they turned out:
I love the way they crackled. To keep everything together I applied several layers of medium to them. The coming nights are - again - expected to be cold and I still have a couple of these canvases so I intend to do it again. This time adding some cheesecloth to it as well.

Wat leuk!! De moeite waard om het te proberen. Dank je wel.
Wat gaaf!Gewoon jammer dat het niet meer zo hard zal vriezen voorlopig.
Very interesting. Of course, I want to touch them! LOL! I have lower quality acrylic paint...wonder how it would play. It's still cold here at night, and my back stoop is cold but sheltered from the wind...
