Ice Dying

By Boiseartist

It's been almost a year since my last post and things are starting to get back to "normal."  I rather embraced staying home and looking after my health and creating in my studio without outside obligations. But also fun to get back out and this summer things kicked off with an in person art retreat ice dying fabric. Thanks so much to our host, Marianne!
