explore the winter palette in natural materials and natural dyes to create your own work of art on a scarf.

Thursday     February 14                 10:00 – 2:00    $50.00                      Adults & Teens

All materials supplied.  No experience necessary.

Join artist, Debbie Jircik and explore natural materials with a winter color palette for dyeing and printing.  Each student will create a naturally dyed silk scarf.

Optional:  At class, students may pay the instructor, $25.00 for an additional 100% wool scarf that will be dyed and printed in class.  At registration, please let us know if you would like a wool scarf.

Discover plant materials cultivated, gathered from the wild, and remnants from the farmers market/produce aisle that create color as we experience dyeing on silk.   Think in terms of muted earthy tones in a range of colors.  Using a contact printing method, experiment with pattern made by leaves.  Leave the class with an eco-printed and dyed silk scarf and sampler swatches of silk to use as a reference or in other projects, a resource guide, and enough knowledge to continue experimenting on your own.  All levels welcome!

Eagle River, clay & paper artist, gardener, & food advocate – Debbie Jircik, will share her passions for working with natural & environmentally friendly materials with LOLA students.

Dress for fun mess!
