Intro… exploring the world of natural dyes

I'm at the beginning of a new journey into the world of natural dyes, a slow, hands-on process that feels like a natural extension of my printmaking practice. Using plants, minerals and mordants, I'm experimenting with ways to draw colour from the environment around me in a sustainable way and transfer it to fabric.

This is very much an exploratory phase, but one rooted in intention. As I become more aware of the environmental impact of textiles, I'm seeking a gentler, more sustainable way of working, one that honours traditional methods and deepens a connection to the natural world.

I will document my journey here.
