the leaf printing journey

Printing with leaves takes a lot of time and experimentation

Printed this paper in my first workshop
with Elizabeth Bunsen
I did lots of embellishing to add interest

The next 3 photos are of current print bundles
Now I get colour & definition of leaf shape
and print on fabric
