ahhh the thermofax

After our basement disaster last year adn finally getting our basement back together, the thermofax machine had been moved several times. On top of that, the door was off going into my "studio". Thanks to that, my kids have taken to playing in the studio. Which also means doing fun things like turning the knob on my thermofax machine. Therefore, when I went to use it, I had several messups trying to get the setting right.

THEN I finally found the 100 mesh sold by the foot, instead of by the roll, so I started using that and had to find the right setting. It's been frustrating, but I think I finally got it right. Made some screens for a friend, so he can make his own shirts for his business.

I think I'm also going to be dyeing and printing tote bags again this year for the Plein Air Competition in St. Charles to list the sponsors.

Looking for a vendor!

I'm been trying to get back into using my thermofax machine. I want to find a company that sells the 100 mesh screens by the sheet. I have yet to find one...The rolls are pricey and I just want to try it out...hoping to stumble on the magical vendor who sells what I'm looking for!

She's getting dusty : (

Scarves, scarves and more scarves!

Lately, I've been working on mostly silk scarves, using simple fold and other resist methods to get a nice variety of patterns.

Another year, another post!

Not much has changes for me in a year according to art. I piddle here and there and wish I had the time. I had a solo show at my gallery last December featuring a few of these pieces.
