In this class we learn and explore numerous processes ofsurface design on textiles. We then layer these processes on a piece of cloth to create a rich, complex, and inimitable work of textile art.
The following is a summary of some of the techniques we explored in summer and fall I classes. All of the work you see here was created by students at the Dunedin Fine Arts Center.
