When one demos different techniques in a classroom setting, the end result can be interesting and often strange. I took one of my odd looking demo fabrics home to finish filling in details. As I looked at it I thought...I'm looking down at the reef! This fall I experienced snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef and it was spectacular.
What a wonderful day working with talented and experienced dyers. It was a day of play and learning for all of us. "Snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef" When one demos different techniques in a classroom setting, the end result can be interesting and often strange. I took one of my odd looking demo fabrics home to finish filling in details. As I looked at it I thought...I'm looking down at the reef! This fall I experienced snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef and it was spectacular. Barbara Skimin combined shibori and painting techniques to create this stunning piece. Debra Gash, using her art skills, has created a fabulous "fall garden". Janice Novachcoff is printing over a previously ice dyed fabric. Beautiful work! Sue Walton has designed a great pair of linen slacks. Jeanne Sarna, my extremely talented and dear friend, is preparing to dye the second layer of her shibori fabric. Linda Poterek is an experienced dyer of wool and silk yarns. This class was her introduction to fabric dyeing. Jumping right in she created delightful patterns and experimented with many different techniques.
