Learn how to capture the beauty of natural plant material on paper!

Eco-printing (Botanical Contact Printing) refers to the act of using plant materials to directly apply color and printed marks to textiles and paper. No additional paint or colourant is used, just an alchemical process using the elements, fire and water which express the natural colour pigments of the plants. It is a simple and surprisingly beautiful art form. Eco printing is a contemporary application of the tradition of natural dyeing. 

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Westborough Cultural Council, a local Cultural agency which is supported by the MassCouncil Cultural Council, a state agency.
