December 10&12, 2015: I taught Indigo Shibori at Lake Forest High School as a visiting artist. The students made wonderful work! Preparation took so much time in my studio before the workshop because how to organize the time to use effectively. Also, Debbie Zare (art teacher) helped me to keep going in the class. Actual workshop was short, even so, the students quickly understood how Indigo Shibori works. Thanks for this lovely experience.
