Textile Collage Workshop Saturday 5 Sept 2020 This workshop is designed to explore your creativity and thriftiness to create an original artwork. Basic stitching techniques using embroidery cottons are taught along with the principles of collage. The workshop is suitable for everyone from experienced textile artists to beginners. As long as you're happy wielding needle and thread you'll be ready to collage. I will share with you knowledge that I have gained from years of using collage techniques with my painting practice, textiles and photography. My practice is based on reusing, recycling and reviving textiles, so you'll get to dive into my large suitcase of scraps! I'll also provide embroidery cottons and wool blanket scraps for working on. Participants are free to bring sentimental pieces of textiles, linen, heirlooms to incorporate into their own piece. Workshop cost $80 for the day, most materials are provided. |

Collage with Acrylic Painting Workshop
Friday 16 Oct or Saturday 17 Oct 2020
Collage is a great technique for finding your creativity, planning paintings, moving through artistic blocks or just to have fun. Over the day you will have the opportunity to create mono-prints using gelli-plates with acrylic paint, which can then be incorporated into your collages.
The workshop is designed to give you the tools to use collage with your acrylic paintings, but is also suitable for complete beginners. If you can cut, rip and glue, you can collage.
I will share with you knowledge that I have gained from years of using collage techniques with my painting practice, textiles and photography. A list of things to bring will be provided.
$95 for the day (which includes some materials)
