Screen printing and Stamping thicknings

I have complete some screen printing and stamping with thickened portion MX dyes, using equally sodium alginate and Dharma's Super clear.

This is a decomposition screen print with thickened dyes.

I took a class last year in Surface Design techniques with thickened dyes, and was introduced to these methods. While, I have purchase multifaceted Cloth' by Jane Dunnewold which goes into lots of point about surface design methods, and Kerr Grabowski's DVD on Deconstructed monitor printing (same thing as decomposition) which is marvelous. Extremely advise both these publications as excellent primers for learning a different ways to use thickened dyes to embellish fabrics.
