Eco-Printing: Releasing Nature's Secrets
About Eco-Printing: Releasing Nature's Secrets
Eco-printing is gaining in popularity all around the world. Come and find out why in this slide show presentation. If you’re unfamiliar with eco-printing, also known as botanical printing, it quite simply refers to leaves and plant matter that print through a bundling and heating process. Eco-printing differs from ‘natural dyeing’. While both use natural plant materials, natural dyeing more commonly results in a fabric being dyed in one particular color. With eco-printing, you actually see the wonderful leaf and flower prints on your piece, some, such as eucalyptus leaves actually print in bright color.
Join me as I take you on a eco-printing tour where you’ll meet some of my friends from around the world, and see their beautiful eco-printed creations - all without leaving the comforts of your own home, and with none of the associated jet lag! We will embark on a journey visiting some of my friends from countries such as Australia, Ireland, and the Netherlands and end our tour with a quick stop to my Plainwell, Michigan studio. I am happy to take questions at the end of the slide show.
