Join artist Hellen Colman to learn botanical printing techniques that yield very defined prints of leaves and flowers on silk. Learn how to make eco-prints while exploring your relationship to nature and become more connected to the earth.

With a focus on eco-printing for silk book cloth, you’ll also learn how to incorporate eco-printing into your artist’s books and individual botanical prints.
