A Yahoo group for mixed-media artists, Cloth, Paper, Studio,is discussing art supplies one buys and then forgets what they were for. Pearl Ex was mentioned and I brought up the technique of spraying dark paper (textured is best) with spray starch, sprinkling a little Pearl Ex and manipulating with a sponge brush. Really simple! I've scanned some of the papers I've done although the metallic sparkle doesn't photograph that well:
These are great backgrounds, similar to using interference paint. Thanks for showing them
