Sun Printing in Maine


Today, we set out an old sheet, mixed up some Pebeo Setacolor Transparent fabric paints, spread out some silk scarves and canvas bags and started sun printing!

First we gathered some wild flowers and pine needles and put out our treasures from yesterday's trip to the beach.


Then we painted our scarves and bags...



And placed our finds on the wet paint.


The sun was HOT, but we were determined.


There were successes but the prints were very subtle.





Don't forget it's just two days until the Searching for Roy G Biv Challenge...this month it's GREEN!

Back to Hamsas



I'm back to the hamsas.


I enlarged some and put them together on two sheets. Then, I enlarged them again so I could try working on some new hamsa designs between my two Wednesday classes.


I'm hoping to see my friend tomorrow to give her her hamsa along with some shells, beach glass and a few photos from my Virginia Beach weekend.
