#SEFAA #FiberArts #TextileArt #FabricPrinting #BlockPrinting #SurfaceDesign #Printmaking #FiberArtist #AtlantaArts #ChambleeGAThis is where the pattern begins. Watch textile artist Jeanne Brady carve into a linoleum block, ink the surface, and transfer that image onto fabric. Then imagine what happens when that same block is printed again. And again. And again.
