It’s hard to believe the Summer is almost over – it went so fast and I am now preparing for an intensive month of production in the studio!
We concluded the Surface Design/Fiber-Reactive Series with two back-to-back sessions: The first was dedicated to creating a color study “chart” using fiber-reactive print pastes. Our second day was devoted to using these charts as a resource for a continuation of paint and pattern exploration on a variety of fabrics. For images from our last session see https://posietex.wordpress.com/2013/06/26/surface-design-workshop-i/). Workshops at Studio Mariposa resume next Spring (the schedule will be posted in late-January, 2014). Here are some images from this past weekend:
