When we were at the cottage I also did some sunprinting. I've been doing that for several years now because the conditions at the cottage are perfect for sunprinting with Pebeo Transparent paints. I dilute the paint half with water and brush it onto white cotton fabric. Then I lay on some leaves or foliage. Here are some fabrics drying on a drop sheet in the sun.
Below is a typical sunprint like I've usually made in the summer. I like adding salt. The last few years I've started making them 18 X 22 inches so I can sell them at Fibre Fling the next spring.
This year I'm working on adding some layers of interest by sunprinting first and then putting paint on the plants and printing them directly onto the fabric. That's what I've done on the piece below. Thanks for stopping by to have a look!
