Casey Newman
fiber Arts
Casey Newman has a master's degree in forest ecology which influences her nature-inspired fabric art. She has been using natural dyes and creating leaf-printed work for over a decade. Casey teaches workshops throughout the Pacific Northwest and online.
Casey is a botanical print and natural dye artist who incorporates nature into her work in a variety of ways. She prints leaves onto fabric using only the natural pigments found within each leaf. Prints show the unique details of the plant and tell a story of season and place. She also uses natural materials - many that she grows herself - to make colorful permanent dyes for fabric. Casey’s work is centered around Northwest native plants. She uses all natural materials. Dyed fibers are washable and colors are permanent.
