I took a mystery workshop from Susie Krage in Detroit on Sept. 10, the last SDA workshop that she's going to offer, although she'll continue teaching workshops at her studio. It was a one-day screen printing class using textile paints screened on to fabric with paper resists (mine were in leaf shapes); fugitive media such as pastels, water soluble crayons, and watercolor pencils drawn on afterwards; then a base extender painted on to make the fugitives permanent and waterproof. (ProChem ProFab textile paints and base extender were used.) A fun class! Susie is a good teacher with a lot of experience using screen printing techniques. Also, her studio in Indian Village section of downtown Detroit is large and has everything needed by students.
