A traditional dye for Japanese paper is Kakishibu, or fermented persimmon. It adds strength, repels insects, and makes the paper water resistant. But we love it for the colors it produces. Join us for the Kakishibu and Washi workshop in July, more information at our website. #kakishibu #fermentedpersimmon #japanesepaper #paperdying https://www.instagram.com/p/CO3P_8Rp2yQ/?igshid=7o5v5uw496vd

I’m somewhere under an overflowing pile of inky paper. I could be here some time. This is my happy place 😁 #creativehibernation #paperdying #inkandwater #splashyart #dictionarypages #livingthedream https://www.instagram.com/p/BtT4_TMHx_d/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f4vw7665ky2k

I’ve been playing about with this technique of dying paper for a long time now. I learn more every time. Dripping, splashing, dribbling, spraying ink and water onto all kinds of paper. Watching it wrinkle and the colors run together and merge. Exploring how colors react, and building up the layers, each one making new patterns in use in collage, art journals, printmaking backgrounds... possibilities are endless 😁 •~{ day 20 #21daysinmyartworld #favouritetechnique }~• •••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #paperdying #abstractpatterns #playingwithink #recycledpapers #madebymixy #inkandwater https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs-uIeOjAmY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1onfu5rtkboqo
