In the summer, I took a very enjoyable workshop with Hattie Hunter.
We printed fresh leaves onto fabric. I used Jaquard fabric paints.
 |
| Cedar bush gave a delicate design and was firm to handle. |
 |
| Wild fern - printed from the back where there is more texture. |
 |
| Japanese maple - full prints and 'ghost' prints. |
 |
| Cedar bush - purple iridescent paint on hand-dyed cotton. |
 |
| A large dragonfly was found on the floor and printed. |
 |
| Paint should be thick enough that it doesn't run. The green had water added to the paint. |
A paintbrush is used to drag across the high spots on the leaf and will produce the veins and edges.
