Soon I’ll be submitting my spring fabric collection to Kokka, with all of the designs based on hand-stamped artwork. These are some side experiments that I’ve made along the way. Right now I’m focusing only on process and experimentation.
This week I’ve been experimenting with color and different painting techniques. Above I tried the same design with acrylic on paper, then textile paint on fabric, while in the photo below I tried a putty knife to spread paint onto fabric.
I also painted some circles onto fabric, then cut them into 3″ squares and sewed them back together again. The pink above and below is neon paint, but it’s difficult to see in a photograph. I’ll add these experiments to the pile and make them into something one day soon.
