NEW FORMAT

Hi, I have changed the look of the blog to reflect the rotten weather in England at the moment.  Do you like the new look? or should I go back to the pink background? hmmmmm any comments would be welcome.
I am exploring the delights of INKAID at the moment.  My C & G classes this week are also going to experiment with it.  I bought my bottles from www.artvango.co.uk in the early summer, then totally forgot about them.  I also bought Mixed Meida: new studio techniques from Isabel Hall & Maggie Grey (see link on my side bar) in the summer & didnt even read it.  There is a section on using Inkaid.  The image above is a LINE exercise that my classes do & this is one of my pieces, I love the colours so am using this one to trial out the printing.  I hve had stunning results so far.  Printing onto black patterned cotton was really suprising.
All I need to do is to stitch some of the paper & fabric pieces but its Strictly results show now so off to watch lalalala - a whole weekend with no face ache & a bit of a brain .....whoo hoo!!!

  2. I like the light prinht on black. It is easier to read and more sophisticated. What is INKAID and what does it do?
