Fabric painting and stamping

















Hi All - a few more pics - these 3 are from the Sherrill Kahn workshop which I attended through ATASDA last year at the end of August - the first was a burgundy piece of material which I stamped (lumiere paints) with some of Sherrill's stamps, sequin waste used as a stencil - metallic oil pastilles - I also used a battery toothbrush to do the frondy "whispy" bits! the next pic shows some pre salt dyed silk stamped with Lumiere paints using the stamp in the 3rd pic which I made using a polystyrene "meat tray" and an old biro! (it was ok but not overly clear so I might try and do it on some fabric that's not so busy!)
