I had a not-really-sick kid home with me yesterday, so we did some gocco printing for the upcoming ICE holiday show.
When printing on fabric, I use the gocco just to burn the screen, then use the screen just like a mini-silkscreen with fabric ink. I seem to get much more even results this way and may try this method printing on paper as well. Anyway, the top drawing was made by my five-year-old and the jellyfish was made by my seven-year-old. Jellyfish are her current obsession. I think these will get made into zippered pouches, maybe painted too.
We’re also planning to make some jellyfish ornaments. No turtle doves for us, we’ll be celebrating the holidays with chickens and jellyfish. Why not?
These are precious! Those are some talented children. See you at ICE!
so absolutely cute!
