Philip Burrows

Hello, my name is Philip Burrows. Since I was a child, I have always loved the bright, vivid colors and patterns of tie-dyes. It was not until recently that I started making them on a larger scale. Unfortunately, I do not have a website yet. I was posting them on Ebay, but there are over 8000 tie-dyes on Ebay, and all of the fees would have forced me to raise my price. Currently, I sell my shirts at a shop called Revolution 9 in the cotton exchange in historic downtown, Wilmington, NC

The products that I use are fiber reactive dye, urea, sodium alginate, and soda ash. I am going to try Synthrapol soon because I need to simplify my wash out process. I purchased a video on making mandalas, but I found that I had to come up with my own technique to accomplish a 16-point mandala on smaller, thicker surfaces, such as t-shirts. The video is great for larger, thin surfaces like tapestries, but unrealistic for shirts. Most of the photos I sent are 16-point mandalas on t-shirts, but there is a 32-point mandala on a tapestry. Hope you enjoy my work. Peace!
