example
of a

combed
pattern.
The
pattern
is
created
by
first
throwing
severl
colors
onto the
bath
making
the
Turkish
base.
Then a
comb
with
one
set
of
teeth
set
in
wide
intervals
was
drawn
through
the
bath
horizontally
first
in
one
direction
then
again
in the
other.
The
second
pass
in this
case
was
drawn
very
closely
to the
first.
This
sample
is
a
second.
The
primary
colors
for this
