Workshop Series at The Sou’wester
Shibori, Batik, & Dip-Dye Using All Natural Indigo with Carolyn Hopkins
We’ll be making tote bags or scarves (depending on what you fancy). You will learn shibori and wax-resist techniques in order to create patterns on your naturally dyed indigo piece. I’ll walk you through the process of how indigo works, and you will leave with an item made by you!
Carolyn Hopkins holds an MFA from the Cranbrook Academy of Art and her work has been shown internationally. Her focus is on the intersection of art and craft, and primary mediums are fibers, glass, and clay.
COST: $40 plus a $10 material fee (Please pay material fee directly to instructor)
BRING: Please wear clothing you don’t mind getting dye on (or an apron) and shoes that can get wet. (hot tea and coffee provided)
