Course programme
On this course, you'll learn how to transform your own drawn or found images into a motif and design for print so please bring the items with you to form the basis of your designs. We'll demonstrate a mix of techniques including dyeing of silk and cotton and screen printing onto a variety of different fabrics. You'll have the opportunity to experiment with a range of printing techniques including pigment binders, metallics, flock & foil using the heat transfer press, and specialist printing of silk using acid dyes.
Course Outcomes
You'll leave with a range of printed samples of your dye and print experiments and at least one piece of work you have designed and printed yourself, for example scarves, cushion covers or T-shirts. You'll also know how to take the next steps, namely how and where you can continue print designing.
Who Should Attend
Anyone interested in learning a new craft, whether for a hobby or because you're an artist looking to diversify or add to your skills. It could lead you to full or part-time studies in another aspect of textile design.
