These are all images taken of my Print and Pattern class's first print project! Overall I think everyone of my students did a great job dealing with the parameters of the assignment. We were working with hand printing fabric yardage via screen printing method. We focused on printing with thickened dye.

Print and Pattern Class Spring 2013
This semester have been taking time off a bit from my own work in order to teach 3 classes. One of those classes is called Print and Pattern. In this class we learn how to design and hand print fabric using thickened dye and pigments. I will be posting more pictures of our work in the studio as the semester continues. -Amy

Small Works Show 11.18.2011
I submitted two pieces to the 'Small Works' show at the Downtown Gallery in Kent, Ohio. I was happy with how my pieces came out. They were digitally printed on both sides and then cut with the image from the back coming through to the front. The images of the people are drawings I did of former teachers photographed in my high school yearbook. The patterns are designed by me as well.
What do they mean? Well I am not sure yet. This is a new series I am working on. I think I am trying to combine a sense of silly playfulness with human fragility.... Sounds pretty arty farty. -Amy
