Just returned
from taking a week-long workshop at Shakerag in Sewanee, TN. I feel very
fortunate to have been able to attend Michel
Garcia's workshop—his knowledge of plants and dyeing and printing with plants and
mordants is brilliant! I'm looking forward to incorporating the new
techniques I learned. Here's some photos from the workshop...
