Helographic Prints or Sun Prints. "Sun painting or heliographic art is a process whereby certain fabric paints are applied to fabric and while still wet, objects like stencils, leafs, feathers etc are placed onto the wet fabric. It is then placed in the sun. The outlines of the objects are transferred to the fabric."
This workshop will provide an overview of the Sun Print process. Students will view and select plant materials. Students will review the Color Wheel, mix paint colors, and set up the sun print. Bring a bag lunch to enjoy while your sun print dries. After heating the prints, students will prepare a "quilt sandwich" with front, batting and backing, and the instructor will review quilting options. Students will hand quilt their piece and attach the binding.
About the Artist:
Elizabeth Davison is a quilter and fiber artist who works primarily with cotton and silk, incorporating embellishments such as specialty threads and beads into her creations. She is a member of many quilt guilds in the metropolitan area and has exhibited locally and nationally.Supplies are provided

1-Day Woodblock
Printing
Workshop
with Kathi Fertig
Instructor:
Kathi Scholz Fertig
Date and Time:
Saturday 10 am - 5 pm
Next Session: TBA
Cost:
$90
The creative process of making wood-block prints has remained
virtually unchanged since its inception in the 15th century. After
the drawing is made onto a plank of wood, the wood is cut away
around the drawing leaving a relief. The relief is inked. Japan
paper is laid over the inked surface and then burnished, transferring
the image onto the paper. Each print is inked and pulled one at
a time. Students will make woodblock prints from conception through
printing.
