Ensimmäiset kankaanpainokokeilutkin ovat jo takana: teimme itsellemme ja toisillemme mandalat, tässä minun omani.
Käytimme leimasintekniikkaa ja jokainen teki ensin omaan työhönsä keskustan eli pari sisintä kierrosta. Sen jälkeen aloimme kierrellä ja painaa kuvioita toistemme mandaloihin loitsumaisen taustamusiikin soidessa ja mahdollisimman vähän keskustellen. Tuotoksen saa halutessaan jatkojalostaa - arvatkaa, mitä ideaa pyörittelee päässään tällainen tilkkutöihin ja tikkaamiseen hurahtanut...
Jos haluat seurata opintojeni jatkovaiheita, ne löytyvät erillisestä Askarruttaa -blogista, joka näki päivänvalon hetki sitten. Blogiin johtava mandalapainike on ylinnä oikeanpuoleisessa sarakkeessa.

A while ago I did mention that my life is going to change drastically and it has: instead of the busy business life I have become a student as of last Monday. I can hardly believe it myself: my dream really has come true and I'm sitting and writing this here in the dormitory of Kankaanpää Institute. I'm studying for nine months to become a handicrafts instructor.
This first week here has been partly learning to learn, but we have also made some handicrafts already: above you can see my personal mandala that we did during our textile printing lesson. We used stamping method and started our own mandala by stamping a couple of rounds in the center. After that we went over to the mandalas of our fellow students and continued stamping them so the printed area grew and grew. Now that they are finished we can develop them into a product as we wish: can you guess what I'm planning - being a passionate quilter...
I've created a separate blog for these studies - time is of essence so I'm only maintaining it in Finnish, but it is going to be more pictures than text even in Finnish, so you are welcome to visit it here. It's going to serve as my portfolio as well, so I'll get two birds with one stone!
You'll also find a mandala push-button up on the right column of my blog page - it will take you to my new blog.
