have a good weekend

 neki desu

 

clearing work and a diversion

been exploring rosepath paralell networks with great joy in the outcome. i don't think people are aware of how much the weaving program creators have advanced the craft.there's so much one can do with pencil eraser and paper before losing it. with the added bonus that you can get an idea of the interplay of colors wiout sampling. my eternal gratitude to all of them.

this might be the final choice(so far) ( ･ω･)

i have also making lakes and or evaporating

the liquid of remaining dye baths.one needs to

honor those plants and insects that worked so hard

to make the dyes.

on the right  remains of lac on tyvek for a future project.

meanders

detour to wind a shibori,then plunked in benibana. it is surprising how much yellow and in comparison  how little red those petals have. or perhaps is the quality of the benibana. as the local supplier is out of stock and i am halfway through my supply i am going for broke and ordering a kilo from the netherlands. as the old adage goes you get what you pay for  just hoping the price does justice .

poor and red, doesn't it sound like a political statement? (￣ω￣ )

this is going to be a lenghty project bcse i want to exhaust the bath  and then do some ferrous acetate layer to spunk the color.
