We will experiment with a variety of flora (I.e eucalyptus, roses) using different mordants (i.e. tannin, iron, copper) and different types of fabrics, ribbon, & dollies. We will explore rust dyeing techniques using metal objects and stencils.  We may overdye some pieces with natural dyes of avocado, black walnut, or tea.

We will experiment with several rust dyeing options as well.

When you leave class at the end of class you will have a nice pile of dye printed fabrics to use in all types of mixed media projects ~ books, jewelry, clothing adornments, fabric flowers, whatever your imagination conjures up!

Come as you are and we will create some beautiful watercolor backgrounds. Cut down into individual cards these backgrounds will be added to with a variety of mixed media supplies like writing and coloring tools, tapes, collage and even a bit of stitching and fibers for texture. Your finished cards can be mailed, shared or framed as art.
