Soap Box

I haven't posted in along time about where my artwork is to see.
Right now Attention-Danger is in the Soap Box Show at the Foundry Art Centre in St. Charles.
I did not go to the Opening but here is a photo I found on their webpage:

Outcome from my Shibori ice dyeing

It was supposed to be black but actually there are many colors in this piece. I decided to make myself a saori vest from it and stitch the back. So here it is.

Like always - cityscape.

Shibori Ice Dyeing

This past Sunday I washed my woven fabric to get the seizing out. It dried and tonight I pulled the fabric together and knotted the ends. It took quiet  sometime.
Then I soaked the fabric in soda ash.

Afterwards I left it in a large container, filled it with ice.

I mixed salt and "new black" in a ziplock bag" and sprinkled it over the ice.

Now it has to sit for 24 hrs in the bucket and then it will be washed out.

More about that in the next couple of days.
