"Sylvie Covey Design was created when I recently built a botanical art studio upstate New York, and concentrated on botanical printing. I use only natural dyes from plants and roots to extract colors. The tannin from leaves and flowers reacts to iron and rust during the steam process. I first experimented with paper and linen, and now work with 100% silk only, for the rich luxurious results in colors and feel."
