Mixed media Dye Samples

I will be popping down to Brisbane next month to teach a workshop for Wendy Bailye 
So I thought people might be interested in some of the effects we will be getting during the workshop
These samples are all on paper but will work equally as well on fabric

Debbie I love that you live by the sea, this is my dearest wish to live within walking distance of a sea that i can interact with, and the exhibition company you are keeping, swooning.

Thanks Jo, always hoping to encourage people to experiment
