Indigo dye is often used to get the distinctive patterns you may recognize in today’s fashion and home décor fabrics. \nIn this hands-on two-day workshop\, artist Diane Kuehn will share the fundamentals of shibori folding and binding techniques to create beautiful patterns on fabric with indigo dye. We will also learn to prepare an indigo vat and how to prepare fabric to dye with scouring techniques. Students can expect to make pillow or napkin sized sample pieces and a cotton scarf. An additional small piece of clothing to upcycle can be brought from home.

He was particularly drawn to the Impressionist paintings and completely captivated by landscape artists like George Inness\, John Singer Sargent\, and all the Hudson River School painters. The way they captured the beauty of nature and the interplay of light and shadow left a lasting impression on me. Today\, his paintings are part of many private collections\, serving as a testament to the enduring power of his vision and commitment to the art of painting.
