Description

This course will introduce students to color theory and surface design techniques as applied to textile materials. We will work with Fiber Reactive and Natural Dyes to explore the possibilities of immersion dyeing and resist methods as well as direct application techniques such as painting and screen printing. Students will be encouraged to explore their ideas through layering color, imagery, and visual texture with additional processes of overdyeing, discharging, and applying textile pigments.
