"MOON DANCER"
This
is a fantasy costume. When
looking at the full moon in
the desert, it is easy to
imagine people dancing in
the moonlight. After all,
everyone gets a little weird
during a full moon...
The moon was fun to paint.
The background colors
include several shades of
blue, buff yellow, and
iridescent silver. The black
sky is composed of dark
umber, deep purple and a sap
green. For the mountains and
craters, a heavy gel medium
was mixed with the silver
paint. A piece of rumpled
wax paper was pushed into
the paint mixture, and then
squished on the canvas. When
the paper was lifted, it
left a glop of paint, like a
mountain or crater.
The weaving structure of the
costume is a fairly complex
fabric. It is basically a
twill, combined with plain
weave, and then "doctored".
Materials include novelty
yarns and cottons.
