Colour of our Isle’s. Companion booklet, folded printed pages interspersed with dye-notes on trace paper. Many thanks to the growers of some of the dyes used in this project. @flo_hawkins @zoeburtuk @naturesrainbowhitchin @fieryfelts #printingwithnaturaldyes #localcolours #botanicaldyes

Re-jigging recycled stencil shapes used to print paper with natural dyes. Making friends with #madder from @naturesrainbowhitchin #weld from @wildcolours #pomegranate from Peru via Brixton market #redcabbage from Cambridgeshire via Twickenham Farmers market #avocado from Brixton market #sloeberries from the River Crane and #grapesfrommygarden

Paper collages representing the provenance of my natural dye ingredients. These shapes are printed in the dye colour onto paper. A few fold and cuts later, and an informational booklet emerges. #cutpaperstencils #naturaldyeprinting #naturaldyesonpaper #provenanceofcolour #dyegardens
