Mealy apples, sprouted potatoes, and wilted celery, oh my! These may sound like candidates for the compost bin, but don’t toss them out just yet. Even if they aren’t fit for consumption, some fruit…

Monday (Patriots day for us from Massachusetts and Maine), Judith came over for a play date. Something I was really wanting to try was making black marks on white fabric that I could later dye a certain color for inclusion into a piece. I made the marks in sections so they could easily be cut out at a later date and dyed or used in some other way. I assembled a PILE (really) of mark making tools and Judith and I had a ball. My fabric was pre-soaked in soda ash. Judith used print paste with soda ash already in it. Both of us were using really old print paste from the back of my refrigerator. I found out after washing that Judith's print paste was fairly exhausted but the end of the day and the color changed from black to green. This is why I am including photos of the marks wet which were all black as well as photos of the cloth washed and iron (and green). I'm starting with the wet prints made with black MX dye and print paste. The alphabet stamps I used with thickened dye on a glass plate. Upper left is my smacker (below) The piece below was printed with small bubble wrap (center), a lint roller with carpet pad on it (below), a monoprint off the glass plate on the upper right and solid and hollow circles made with an empty cone spool (below) This was a thin line of thickened dye with a wide tooth comb run through it. Not one on my more successful attempts. It worked great on paper with India ink. (below) These were done with my rope stamps (below) This , which I LOVE, was done with a square cut out of a car sponge (below) Now the washed, dried and ironed versions: I switched from my squeeze bottle of black thickened dye to Judith's exhausted dye. Had I known...... a thin line of dye with a credit card run through it vertically pale grey dye applied with a credit card This is a large panel done with the dye in a syringe graffiti style Credit card dipped in dye. I think if the dye was thinner, it might have come out better I printed letters and figures for a reason I will talk about in the future. Monoprint from the glass and designs made with letters and numbers (fun!) The smacker The solid circles were made with the screw on cap from my soda ash jug. They smacked like the smacker does. The left side was done with a lint roller with elastics (below) I will do more of this, possibly trying to perfect a few mistakes and maybe trying new mark making tools.

One of my favourite plants to dye with in the spring is the stinging nettle – it’s one of the plants I most look forward to. The leaves give me a soft grey-green hue at this time of year (maybe you get a slightly different colour?) – the colour just feels so fresh and “alive”...

Now my secret project is complete, I'm now back to working on a couple of commissions I received before Christmas. One is a very large fabric and paper journal with lots of embellishments. The other is a junk journal. I'm working on them both at the same time, this allows me to take a break from each one, that way I can see if more needs to be done when I go back. one of the fabric pages some paper and fabric pages more paper and fabric pages a section in the junk journal more pages papers to be added my journal pages for Valentine's day left hand page right hand page These pages are of our dressing table close up detail showing the reflection in the mirror more reflections. Finally please spare a thought for our friends over the Tasman in Christchurch. They suffered a bad earthquake last year but that had nothing on the one they had yesterday. Out hearts and prayers go out to them. Mother nature is making her presence felt in a big way in both of our countries. I also have a link to a great youtube video created by a lovely bunch of kids in Perth, if you click on the link and watch the video it raises money for the Queensland flood appeal, just wait until the ad at the beginning finishes, it's not long. http://www.youtube.com/storytellermedia
Lehtiä. Metallirinkulat ovat painona, koska lehdet olivat kovin kippuraisia. Paperista voi leikata nimikoinnin ja ihan hyvin kuviakin. Paperista taittelemalla leikatut tähdet toimivat myös hyvin. Paperi oli vahapintaista, varmaan myös leivinpaperi sopii hyvin. Ryppytekniikkaa. Tällä tekniikalla tulee kankaaseen hieno syvyysvaikutelma. Kankaan voi myös laskostaa. Kaikki ylläolevat on kuivattu luokassa yli yön, eli aurinkoa ei tähän tarvita, vaikka puhutaankin aurinkovärjäyksestä. Koulussa ulkona kuivaaminen nopeuttaa hommaa, tunnissakin kangas kuivuu jos on aurinkoa riittävästi. Silloin työ kannattaa luokassa tehdä jollekin alustalle, esimerkiksi muovilla päällystetylle pahville ja kantaa sitten ulos aurinkoon . Ulkoa voi kerätä pieniä kiviä painoksi jos tuuli haittaa ja lehdet meinaavat lentää kankaalta. Roskapussit olivat ihan hyviä muovisuojuksia. Esineitä voi asetella kankaalle. Nämä kuivuivat ilta-auringossa ulkona , siksi kuviot epäselviä, koska esineestä tuli vino varjo kankaalle, mikä vaikutti kuivumiseen. Sydännapit ja reiälliset muovihelmet kuivuivat luokassa hyvin selväpiirteisiksi. Auringossa kuivuneet pienet muovieläimet muuttuivat vähän hirviömäisiksi, vähän luolamaalausmaisiksi.
This post was originally a newsletter piece. I received so much feedback that I thought I’d share it on my blog. After last week’s election, I didn’t know if I’d be up to writing or blogging this week. While the results of the election aren’t completely a shock to me – as a woman of […]
