Design and print your own fabrics! Block printing with Kate Ward (2018 curator). In this class we will create and carve our own designs using block-printing methods to build up an image, which we can combine with simple stencil and fabric painting techniques, which will create depth and layers to our design. Set in the delightful historic grounds of Acadia University in the 'Potting Shed' next to the Harriet Irving Botanical Gardens this course encourages artistic exploration of ideas that can be translated into a repeat fabric print.
We cover basic colour theory to mix your own colours and experiment with transparent and opaque print pastes. The skills developed in this course can be applied in the studio or on the kitchen table. Suitable for all skill levels.
