Those drying, hanging linen bunches remind me of wet hair
I have been staining linen fiber into black color to make paper blend of it later on.
I
had a witchy feeling standing in front of the stove with big pink
gloves on, stirring the black raven hair mixture in a huge kettel:=)
A while ago I painted a "hair-dye-self-portrait"

Would love to see more on your experiments :)

Nicely done. Well, I can tell you that my wet hair...all two feet of it...does look an awful lot like your drying linen. :) By the way, I love that song.
