The Pacific Northwest Art School on charming Whidbey Island, WA is working with me to offer a great five-day Ro-Kata and Han-bosen workshop June 23-27. Here's a ideal chance to delve into the Japanese batik process, learn their unique wax stencil process as well as the half-resist technique. Its a professional level workshop but beginners to advance students can be accommodated. Contact kiranada at kiranada03848@gmail with any questions and sign-up soon with pacificnorthwestartschool.org
As part of the Batik Guild's 40th anniversary we are holding a series of workshops and talks at Claire Drewe's Studio and Chambres D'Hôtes on the edge of the Loire Valley in France. The theme will be sustainability and workshops will be held in natural dyes and using caps with natural dyes. There will also be a day of talks and a mini exhibition and Open studios on the 14th July.
