Batik is a form of fiber art using wax to make resist designs and patterns on on fabric. Once the resist is applied, your choices for adding colors are limited only by your imagination!
In this class, you will learn a variety of ways to make beautiful colors, patterns and images on fabric, and create pieces that can be mounted for display or used to make functional or wearable art. You will experiment with practice pieces and then create a finished product of your choice. This can be a scarf, a banner, a pillowcase or something else of your choosing. No artistic experience necessary, just bring your creativity!

Learn tie-dye resist techniques such as folding, tying, scrunching and winding to make beautiful, colorful patterns. Combine brilliant dye colors to create eye-catching pieces such as t-shirts, scarves, aprons or anything else made of cotton or other silk or cellulose fibers.
I will supply the dyes, fixer, guidance, encouragement and all of the equipment needed to make finished pieces. You will see a hands-on demonstration and receive a complete set of instructions for making more exciting creations on your own.
This class is great for beginners and experienced fiber artists alike. All classes are held in the Full Circle Art Studio in Gunbarrel — a casual and fun setting for creative exploration and a perfect venue for an intimate get together with friends. Wear some old clothes, bring a water bottle and your sense of adventure!

If you are as excited by the fiber arts as I am, how about attending an Open Studio at Full Circle? If you have taken a class or a private lesson from me, you are eligible to attend. This is your chance to work on an unfinished project or start something new! Holiday gifts perhaps?
You can bring a natural fiber item to work on or purchase one at the studio, and I will supply the all the equipment and other materials you will need. No new instruction will be given, but I will provide plenty of guidance and support. Each session costs $25 per person.
Sessions must have 2 or more participants to run. Cancellations require 24 hours advance notice. Late cancellations will not be refunded. For more information, text or call me at 303-530-1534.
Claudia will customize a 3-hour workshop for you and your friends! Choose from Batik or Shibori/Tie-dye. Bring your own natural fiber item to dye or purchase one at the studio.

Please contact Claudia at Full Circle Art Studio for more information about workshops and private lessons.
Claudia really helps you to tap into your creative side, with great instruction and artistic tips. She knows her craft so well – if only I could create some of the beautiful things she has made!
I always have a good time with Claudia’s classes and open studio. You never know what your project will look like, but it’s always beautiful!
I had the best time creating my shirt in Caudia’s class. She has so many options for colors and designs that it really feels like the possibilites are endless. She is a wonderful instructor that made learning the techniques easy and fun. I will definitely be returning for more classes in the future!
Love going to Claudia’s classes and open studio! It’s never dull, and always a fun experience. You never know what your project will turn out like, but it’s always beautiful! Claudia has a way of sharing her love of color and textiles that draws you in.
“ I NEED TO PLAY!!! And in this class that’s exactly what I can do – for me, there’s little better than playing with color and materials to soothe the jangled nerves. Better than wine!!! The instruction Claudia provides adds to the comfort level in playing.”
What I liked most about it what is the chance to explore with lots of resources (teacher, materials).
I loved it, it was fun, funny and inspirational.
I had so much fun and learned so much about fiber art, color, and dye.
All classes are held at the Full Circle Fiber Arts Studio near Boulder, Colorado
