Introducing my new magazine, Living Colour
It’s like a workshop you can hold in your hands
It’s not always possible to meet in person, and we already spend so much of our lives online. May these projects of living colour root you deeply in place, connecting with the plants around you and wearing the colours of nature.
No more throwing random leaves on fabric and hoping for the best!
