Description

Nicola Cliffe – Printing with Natural Dyes

We are excited to offer a new book by English artist and printmaker Nicola Cliffe called Printing with Natural Dyes. This is a charming and practical instruction book that covers the techniques of block printing, screen printing and eco-printing. What makes this book special is each technique also introduces an artist in that technique.  We are treated to a behind-the-scenes visit, and learn hints and tips from each of the featured artist.

Ms. Cliffe also reviews natural dyes, mordanting, preparing the studio and workspace and design considerations for your own creations.

If you have always wanted to learn more about printing with natural dyes, this is an excellent start to familiarize yourself, experiment, and play with blocks, screens and plants!
