Welcome to my newsletter! Here I will take you on a journey through the vibrant world of natural dyes, from sourcing and preparing plant materials to experimenting with different printing techniques. Let’s dive deeper into history, science and artistry of working with living botanical materials.
It starts with a walk in nature, whether I’m wandering through my garden or exploring the forests in my near vicinity. Branches, kaleidoscope of shapes, the intricate design of leaves, the textures of earth, they all bring the spark of inspiration for creating an artwork or textile design. I gather various plant material, transforming the casual walk into a quest for inspiration – an adventure that stirs the artist within.
