The workshop featured Golden Artist Colors and artist Sandie Bacon (here).
We had a great time painting on different kinds of fabric. Sandie brought us all sorts of goodies to play with.
Sandie brought these drapery samples and I stenciled on some Iridescent Gold, then over that some modeling paste mixed with orange interference paint.
On this one I first stenciled some Micaceous Iron Oxide (oh-- I love saying that!) and then the modeling paste over that.
Sandie showed us how to make "skins" by smearing medium over a piece of plastic and adding a little paint for color. Let it dry and voila! A semi-transparent "skin" that you can paint or stitch over. It reminded me of when I was a kid and we used to smear glue on our palms, let it dry, then peel it off.
And I got to play with a small Gelli-plate. This was just some paints smeared on it, then I kissed it with a texture plate before "printing" the fabric.
But I really like the gelli-plate prints on this scrim. They're in order from first to last.
So I think I may try to combine all these bits into one single piece. Hmmmm.....

WoW!!! I sure hope I can find some workshops/classes here that have some surface fun!!! Of course, still waiting....
forgot.... I like the texture plate print better too.... but the original has some possibilities. I'm not sure I would put them all in one piece.... but the last 3 I would.. or maybe I misunderstood, and that is what you meant.
Not fair! You're having/had too much fun!!!
More arty fun!
Thanks for all of your work on this web page. I am looking forward to reading more of your posts in the future.
