Studio Good Stuff

I am completing the 7th month of my year-long grant on botanical printing and natural dyes here in the San Gabriel Valley in Southern California. took my paper and bookmaking class in December and has returned for the fiber component this month. A long-time artist, Liz jumps in and explores every possible opportunity to create line, shape, color and value changes in her work. Yesterday we explored cochineal more in-depth and introduced the discharge plants, primarily oxalis and geranium. Liz fell in love with the oxalis blossoms and stems! It was a wild and wonderful day of surprises.

It’s been a pleasure working and playing with these local women!
