Research into Eco Printing Artists.

Eco Printing is a technique that transfers plant colour and shape onto fabric or paper. The method of eco printing uses the natural pigments, tannin's and acids present in leaves, by combining them with mordants, moisture and heat on fabric or paper.

My attempts of Eco Printing were somewhat positive however some of the leaves were not good at showing their pigments and shapes transferring onto the page.
