Do you love triangular and other geometric shapes? Prayer Flags, a 9" x 12" mask, is full of them!
I've surprised myself in discovering that I probably have used this mask more than any of my other StencilGirl stencils and masks!

A "ghost" print, made by lifting a mask or stencil while it's still wet with paint and flipping it over, using it the way a rubber stamp is used. It's called "ghost" because this method is printing with leftover areas of paint. Here the substrate is stretched canvas.

A print made with the subtractive technique on stretched canvas. This method calls for applying a layer of acrylic paint and, while it's still wet, placing a mask or stencil atop it. The next step is to rub across the stencil or mask with a soft cloth, removing the paint that shows thru the openings of the mask or stencil. If the paint has started to dry, the soft cloth still works, if sprayed lightly with water.
