First Eco Prints on Watercolor Paper

First Eco Prints on Watercolor Paper

Eco prints use natural botanicals to print on paper or fabric. Aluminum Acetate mordant, steamed for 15 minutes. Steamed as a group with plain cloth barrier between each set.

Sheet metal exterior to keep bundle tight held with binder clips.

Verbena, coreopsis, sulfur cosmos, marigold, lavender, red cone flower,

blackberry and strawberry leaves didn't leave any impression or just a faint hint.

A longer steam might bring out the leaves.

All in all I am quite pleased with the results for my first time.
Stay tuned for more to come.
