Lots of interesting shapes and colours to work with in each piece. And the cold exposure is pretty limited unless you decide to slap on water and pigment outside in the snowbank! Me? I prefer to wet it down inside then throw it out on the porch. :)<br /><br />Thanks Jane. The weather here is unpredictable and sometimes the temperatures are cold enough to do this, often not, so I take advantage when I can to have some base pieces in reserve for the future.<br /><br />My pleasure to share what I know Penny. Thanks so much for your kind words. I hope you get a chance to experiment with the technique.<br /><br />Vicki, thank you. While its an interesting technique, I'd often swap my winter for your warmer climate.Jeanette Jobsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08935974758134419990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-46018717305437091932013-01-13T16:46:06.816-03:302013-01-13T16:46:06.816-03:30What a wonderful way to make use of our cold Canad...What a wonderful way to make use of our cold Canadian climate.

I remember reading about this years ago on WetCanvas but just did a search, trying to figure out who started it and it looks like 2 artists claim it as their own specialized technique - Kathleen Conover and Arso Ivanovich (from Yugoslavia now in Wisconsin). Kathleen uses it for abstracts but Arso does everything, using the crystalized technique as a background to even do figurative work. Very interesting and fun to do - if you don't mind the cold! ha ha RH Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497161758269292809noreply@blogger.com
