classes are coming to an end this month.it has been enjoyable and gratifying even with my pitiful drawing skills.

and not try to draw exact copies  i can get acceptable results.

 been putting to use the suiboku sticks from japan. there's a lot to explore with ink and mid tones still.

tending the lichen fermentation, it is showing some hint of purple, but still much yellow. this is a remnant from the knitting ;revisited the concept of waste and wasted yarn.

it's mercerised cotton, but unmordanted and unwashed. just checking the progress of the fermentation.

in theory in 9 months it will have turned purple..9 months of daily stirring folks.
