Event description

Capture the essence of nature and unleash your creativity in this hands-on eco leaf printing workshop.

Learn how to create beautiful and unique prints onto silk using leaves sourced from the natural environment. Play around building up textures and patterns and experimenting with layering, composition and bundling techniques to create diverse textures and patterns.

By the end of the session, you can walk away with 4-6 beautiful silk prints to be framed or displayed in any way you choose!

Helen specialises in eco leaf printing, indigo, shibori, natural dyeing and rust printing. Whilst living in Vientiane, Laos, Helen worked alongside the master dyers and weavers at The Houey Hong Vocational Training for women and learned about the natural dyeing process native to Laos.

Spending her time between Dorset and South East Asia, Helen shares her experience and knowledge through these workshops.

No experience necessary.

This is a morning session from 10am-2pm.
