Robin Kasowitz is a multidisciplinary artist who has mastered a wide array of dyeing techniques. The results are intricate one of a kind fabrics that she incorporates into large sculpted pieces. One of the most magnificent processes is incorporating Ice Dyeing with the ancient art of shibori. The results are drenched with color and are both elaborate and gorgeous! Getting these vibrant results can be tricky, requiring time and concentration, but it’s worth it. Its beautiful results are undeniable and can be used for quilting, clothing and a multitude of fabric art options. Robin is mesmerized by the scope and power of this process and has also been fortunate to view the vast array of fabulous outcomes.

About the Instructor:

I see myself as an “Inside Outsider Artist” who shines a bright light on the Wonder of Womanhood. I attended Alfred University as an Arts Major. Alfred was loaded with prominent professors and an abundance of supplies. It was there that I realized I wanted to keep my art as my passion. Ultimately, I became a psychotherapist professionally but creativity and art has always been my lifeline.

 As a creative my mission and muse is to unbury and honor disregarded feminine forces. I do this with textiles, clay and collaging. One of my processes is Eco Printing. Eco Printing is sumptuous, gorgeous, elegant, raw and mysterious! It can be tricky and difficult, but it’s worth it. Its beauty is undeniable! For years I’ve been mesmerized by mastering this process. I’ve also been fortunate to view the vast array of fabulous outcomes.

My pieces have been shown locally and in venues and shows in NYC. I’m honored that my work is finding a growing audience of collectors throughout the United States.
