No its using water colour wet on wet then lay it out in the frost to slowly freeze
the ice patterns form in the paint and fix when it dries
i'll ask Linda when she pops up for air

Here's a little poetic reference to "hoar frost" with a fairyland type theme for ya...   :)  This woman must have felt the same way about hoar frost as you do.   :)
I found it on http://www.bartleby.com, a very cool website.

34. Fairyland
 
By Anne Glenny Wilson
 
 
DO you remember that careless band, 
Riding o'er meadow and wet sea-sand, 
  One autumn day, in a mist of sunshine, 
Joyously seeking for fairyland? 
 
The wind in the tree-tops was scarcely heard,         5
The streamlet repeated its one silver word, 
  And far away, o'er the depths of woodland, 
Floated the bell of the parson-bird. 
 
Pale hoar-frost glittered in shady slips, 
Where ferns were dipping their finger-tips;         10
  From mossy branches a faint perfume 
Breathed o'er honeyed clematis lips. 
 
At last we climbed to the ridge on high. 
Ah, crystal vision! Dreamland nigh! 
  Far, far below us the wide Pacific         15
Slumbered in azure from sky to sky. 
 
And cloud and shadow across the deep 
Wavered, or paused in enchanted sleep, 
  And eastward the purple-misted islets 
Fretted the wave with terrace and steep.         20
 
We looked on the tranquil, glassy bay, 
On headlands sheeted with dazzling spray, 
  And the whitening ribs of a wreck forlorn 
That for twenty years had wasted away. 
 
All was as calm, and pure, and fair,         25
It seemed the hour of worship there, 
  Silent, as where the great North Minster 
Rises for ever, a visible prayer. 
 
Then we turned from the murmurous forest-land, 
And rode over shingle and silver sand,         30
  For so fair was the earth in the golden autumn, 
We sought no farther for Fairyland. 
 

Y'all can pronounce it "puh-SKOLLY"

Thanks, Paschale  :)  That's a very nice poem. It's been quite a while since I read any peotry. The rythem can be very soothing and that author sure made me visualize the forest ;D

I don't read poetry either, though when I did a search for "hoar frost" on that site, I thought it was really interesting that one of the first things it came up was this poem that talked about something you talked about--that it should come from a fairy tale.  So I thought I'd post it--gotta add a little culture from time to time!    ;)

OR when the air temp drops below -40F and the moisture in the air crystallizes  on a beautifull clear winters night  ;)

That's what sometimes happens here, it will drop to -30 or colder then in a couple of days it's raining.  ::)

Thanks Iain. Sounds really interesting. Not that I could ever try it in CR, but, I like to see other peoples talent.
