Join&nbsp;Jorie Johnson, a master textile artist based in Kyoto, Japan, as she shares her method of combining multiple processes and techniques such as shibori and scouring, to manipulate and dye silk to create interesting surface designs. Not commonly taught in natural dye classes the skills learned in this hands-on workshop lead to intricate layering of design&ndash;a tool that will inspire you to think, strategize, and experiment for your own signature textile designs. Creating a supply of interesting fabrics is your first step to launching fresh and exciting projects.&nbsp; Students will practice making repetitive motif patterns on silk with shibori resist and silk sericin protein removal solution resulting in two qualities of fabric in one: organza and Pong&eacute;e. You will also work with carbon sumi ink, applying it directly on to the silks and also to natural vegetable fiber fabrics (cotton gauze, linen, rayon, ramie).
