Introduction to Kamazone (Japanese Stencil Dyeing)  Kit Eastman
Explore this centuries old Japanese surface design technique that incorporates elements of both printmaking and painting. Design and cut simple stencils from waterproof Yupo© paper.  "Print" rice paste resist through your stencils to cotton and silk. Continue by hand painting your fabrics with a rich selection of natural pigments. At the end of the second day we rinse the rice paste off to reveal our designs. Incorporate your creations into quilting and/or wearable art projects! Appropriate for the beginner or seasoned artist, you will leave with a fundamental understanding of the materials, techniques and processes of this traditional Japanese textile tradition.  Sat/Sun Sept 22/23  9 - 4   $235/$20 materials
