August 15-17, 2025: Silk and Paper Mixed Media Workshop with Peg Gignoux

Explore ways to blend color, line and gesture with cloth and paper. We will begin by making a suite of mono printed papers through touch drawing on tissue. We will continue our explorations with translucency by dyeing lengths of silk organza. We will dip lengths of watercolor paper into the dye waste to transform whites into new soft tones of color. Using the visual tools of collage, we will play with silk and papers tolayer, slice and build new surfaces. Workshop will include demos regarding fusing, gluing and stitching materials. Design prompts to include repetition of simple geometric forms to yield a rhythmic mixed media paperscape.
