In this full-day summer workshop learn all about the unique process of eco-printing using leaves.
Your tutor Carol Ann, will guide you through the process of nature-based printing, by demonstrating the mordanting and steaming involved of the fabric and paper. The process is unpredictable and results in a subtle colour palette suggestive of alchemy and traditional fabric staining. You will experiment wrapping leaf collections into bundles, producing a series of samples.
Date: Saturday, June 17, 2023 Time: 10am-4pm Venue: The Courthouse, Thirsk YO7 1QS
