Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this dye class:

Flour, wax, gum, and glue are all really interesting ways to create texture and pattern on your fabrics. In this workshop we will experiment with all of them.

We'll work with a variety of resists that benefit from maximum dry time, play with wax and dip that piece in an organic indigo vat, use brayers and screens to add texture, and set up our thickener for painting with dyes.

Low immersion, painting with dye, and pour over techniques will be shown.

Directions: I am at 10 Grattan St, off the L train Morgan Ave stop, next to Pine Box Rock Shop. When you arrive, there's a buzzer on my white mailbox. It will take me a minute to gather and get to the door, but if it's more than a minute you can call/text 929-333-7552.
