Ready for a whirlwind review of all twelve sessions of Indigo Extravaganza?You've come to the right place. This two-hour program reviews every facet of traditional figurative dyeing with Japanese indigo along with innovative variations straight out of John’s brain – from direct painting to clamp resist, from katazome rice-paste resist to tsujigahana, from dyeing paper to dyeing terracota tiles and leather – all included in the original course. You name it, we covered it!
The review session is two hours long. You'll be able to download and keep the recording of the Zoom session. Once you've signed up, you'll be emailed the access information for the Zoom login and later in the day, the download link with your unique pass code.
This program has been designed as a bonus review session for those who signed up for the full course of Indigo Extravaganza. Many who weren't able to make it have requested that this session be opened up to the general public to help more people appreciate the full range of beauty Persicaria tinctoria has to offer. This review will be useful to those just beginning their indigo journey as well those with years of experience under their belt.
