In taking a workshop with Wen Redmond, I had time to make some samples of various techniques, using printed photos. We printed on different substrates like cotton, canvas, silk, tissue paper, stabilizer and even foil lined tea bag wrappers. If you are using non-porous surfaces, you need to apply InkAid (digital grounds) to it and let it dry. We also used molding paste or modeling paste on stabilizer and stamped into it to add texture. So much fun! My printer was not working quite right, so I skipped on to creating collages using the small printed samples I got.
The one above had black lava and ceiling glitter added to it. We printed on organza, linen, Joss paper and cheesecloth. Loved every minute. Wen Redmond is fearless and over the top creative!
