21/08/2017 Botanical contact printing

Explorations with frozen rose petals, copper and other mordants. Part of my current attempts to make books. This felt would be a book cover, if I can align my alchemy to create appropriate pages to put inside it. Anyway, such a nice change in palette from so much of my botanical dying work which tends to be heavier and more in the brown/black shading with heavy olive greens.

Exciting alchemy
