the things you find...


(I do not know what these are, how they were created, or the inspiration behind them but wow do I love them)
Soooo...
when I am not painting, drawing, screen printing, working, or watching law&order I am most likely surfing the web for anything.  I sometimes dont even type in any certain name in search. I just hope to come across something so outstanding that I just need to save that photo onto my lap top.  Try it sometime.. you will be amazed.

to dye or not to dye...thats the question




and so it goes.. There are many ways you can dye fabric.  You can use fresh fruits, veggies, juices, spices, coffee, teas and chemical dyes.  My preference is RIT dyes (chemical dyes).  The reason why I chose this brand over the more organic products for dying is because to me it is more vibrant.  It allows you to mix colors and really work with it like its a paint to create the color you are looking for. These fabrics were dyed with rubber bands all over them.. aka tie-dying them.  Its is an easy way to create an excellent pattern.
