Black Linen Anti Shibori Dyed Printed with Almond Shells and Chestnuts Type/Size:Black with pink and gold 50" x 66" (127cm x 168cm) Day 1: Intro to materials50" x 66" (127cm x 168cm) First I hand "anti dyed" the linen in color remover using shibori folding and sewing techniques. This is 100% ethically sourced all natural medium weight linen. (200 GSM 6 OZ) Then I hand silkscreened 2 3 times, layering the different images; of hot pink almond shells and metallic pale gold chestnuts. Images patterns are original designs of mine, that are hand drawn, original photographs, or digitally manipulated objects.
