It has a very spooky British feel to it; very Daphne Du Maurier’s “Rebecca” and it seems a perfect match for the gloomy day. I have been playing in the basement with discharge paste and thermofax screens. These started out as some really boring hand dyed organzas. The color was fairly uniform and saturated; not really useful for the lind of work I do. Here are the results:
