PLEASE NOTE I AM AWAY TRAVELLING FROM THE 29TH JUNE - 2ND AUGUST. 
There may be a delay with communication as at times I may be without access to the internet. 
 
Prices are in New Zealand dollars. This series is best viewed on a big screen if possible for ulitimate viewing! 
 
If you've done this class already, you are entitled to 40% off (please email me for the promo code). 
 
Someone mentioned recently that she wanted to binge watch all the dyed & heaven videos in one go. I usually run this class over three weeks. 
 
I thought, hmmm, maybe there are others who don't mind not taking part in a LIVE class and would like access to the details as soon as it feels right for them. 
 
So I took myself off into the studio for the day and filmed myself demonstrating this amazing techniqne.  And now......drum roll........for the first time EVER is the dyed & gone to heaven class with INSTANT access to all of it. ALL of it. 
 
It's split into three videos:
VIDEO ONE:
How to it began
Examples of my dyed paper
What you need to get started
Working with the basics to get amazing results
 
VIDEO TWO
Building on video one and adding some secret tools
Creating depth on the paper
Working with a selection of papers
My secret to getting amazing marks on the paper
 
VIDEO THREE
Using some surprising tools to create unique marks
How to dye calico 
 
During the videos I share a tonne of advice, information, troubleshooting options and over ten years of experimentation with you. 
 
Buying this class also gives you access to the facebook group that's been running for years. There's loads of information and support within the group. 
 
 
I suggest you read the frequently asked questions as this will hopefully answer what I get asked a lot! 
 
PLEASE NOTE.....as soon as you buy the class you're automatically sent the handout with all the details you'll need to engage in this class. It has the materials you'll need and the links and passwords to the vimeo recordings. Please download it ASAP as it does have a time limit (this is a Wix store thing not me!). However, if you miss it or it expires, get in touch and I'll send it manually. 
 
HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL! 
I can't stress enough how experimental this class is. It's not a paint by numbers class, the best way to experience this amazing technique is to try it out for yourself. 
 
The recordings are available indefinitely.
 
POPULAR CLASS
Dyed & Gone to Heaven is my most popular class. We dye paper and do some other exciting and secret squirrel stuff to make it simply divine. You won't ever buy paper in a shop looking like this.
 
As it's an online class and in my experience of teaching - most people like to watch and experiment afterwards and I recommend this, as there's a lot to take in.
 
A class requirement list will be emailed upon registration.
 
This is an adventurous and fun class where you'll be surprised at how quickly you can create depth in the pages using simple techniques and very basic equipment.
 
Once you sign up for the class, you'll be eligible to join the closed facebook group - dyed and gone to heaven. It's a place where past students can post photographs of their continued experiments and enjoy connecting with other.
 
Please note, the reason this has remained a secret is that individuals attend this class for their own interests and have respected my wishes not to blog about it or teach it to others.
 
If you are from an art institution please let me know so we can discuss. I don't train the trainers at this point, but I am available to teach at your place (within NZ or online).
 
A class requirement list will be emailed upon registration.
 
WHAT A PAST STUDENT HAS TO SAY:
"I'm not exaggerating when I tell you that Liz's "Dyed and Gone to Heaven" techniques helped open the floodgates of my creativity.  The playful process, one rich in experimentation and endless surprises, has allowed me to organically create some of my favorite books - books with texture and cohesion that have sprung forth without my needing to force anything. The dynamic process, resulting in spontaneous art created by my own hands, helps me channel my thoughts and emotions in a way that feels authentic and original to myself.  During the process of making my papers, I am not comparing my work to that of others.  I am no longer getting hung up on an arbitrary expectation that my work needs to say something profound or witty with text.  The colors and shapes do the talking for me, which has changed the way that I approach my work."

Any questions just email! 
Have a happy and creative day.

FAQ QUESTIONS:

Q: Can I see the materials list before I register for this class?

A: I'm afraid not as it has some secret squirrel information on it that's the key ingredient in this class, so I'm sorry, I can't. But please note, the materials are easily sourced and not expensive!

Q: How much can I expect to spend on materials for this class?

If you spend more than $50US on materials I'll be surprised. I encourage people to shop local and source cheap/free items. You can use natural dyes for this technique if you like. I chat about various papers in this class, most people have easy access to a range of papers.

Q: Can we have access to the dyes you use in New Zealand?

A: Unfortunately, the company I get my dyes from do not ship outside New Zealand. However, I have an international student base who have access to a range of dyes from around the world. I even had a student in Eygpt who used Henna! This technique does not rely on my dyes to make it work. I've seen stunning results from a variety of dyes.

Q: How long will we have access to the recording?

A: You'll have 'lifetime' access. i.e it's not my intention to take it down anytime soon.

Q: Do you need lots of space?

A: When I teach, I'm working in a tiny space (just big enough to be seen on camera, so half a dinning room table size). But when I create I make a big mess! The main thing is having somewhere to dry your delicious paper as it's been created. A lot of people tend to create in the summer so they can get their papers dry quickly. But if you only have a dinning room table, that's enough space.

Q: Can I watch the recordings with a friend?

Only if your friend has also bought the class.

Q: Can I teach people how to dye paper using your method?

Please don't! I've developed this technique over 10 years. One day I might develop a train the trainer programme in which case then it will be a yes!

Q: Why are you so secretive about this technique?

It's so unique you won't find it anywhere else. In this day and age where everyone shares everything, it's actually lovely to have something with a bit of mystery and intrigue! This is also how I make my living as an artist. I have created a warm and inclusive community which is not secretive! You can be part of this if you want to buy the class.
