We will produce a collection of samplers on all sorts of textured papers from watercolour papers to unique cotton rag. We will also explore a variety of embellishment techniques to apply to the papers before rust dyeing and after dyeing to create unique and one of kind artworks.Using rust dye techniques and a variety of layering techniques, you will create paper surfaces that can be applied to your own unique art journey and artworks. Perfect for artist book makers, collage, stitch, artworks on paper; the possibilities are endless. We will provide all dye solutions, equipment, and some speciality papers, but participants will also be encouraged to bring their own special paper collection to dye and embellish as well.
