Isn't this yummy? It is a flat-back papier mâché ornament I painted with a faux raku technique developed by Barbara Matthiessen for Earth Safe Finishes.

The rich serendipitous colors of raku fascinate me and I'm thinking of a holiday tree covered in "fauku" stars and balls.

Hopefully, this technique will work on fabric, as well as stiff surfaces!! Wouldn't it be KEWL to wear a garment with the look of raku? Oh yeah!

I just love the colours in this and I like the idea of a garment made with this kind of finish.
