The very lovely and talented Emily Notman lead a Mixed Media workshop. It was pretty full on but being with like minded folk and learning new techniques meant the time sped by in the blink of an eye.
We started out by creating embellishments with air dry clay (available in places like The Works & The Range). Then we painted up papers and fabrics with emulsion paints (tester pots), did some marbling using shaving foam, inks and paint and some using water and inks.
Then lots of layering and stitching and building up textures.

I may frame my pieces separately or make them into one piece.
It was super fun and I’ll show you the end results once I’ve finished.
Here’s some pieces other folk made

Dear Lynne, it was amazing to read all about the craft workshop you attended with some light-minded friends and their craftly experiences. Happy to see you had a great time and created some wonderful textures. The collage on the fabric you created was exquisite. Thank you very much sharing.
ReplyDeleteAll looks lovely Lynn. I fear it will be many months before we are all able to resume workshops....I am on a rota at school to go in and look after the children we have coming into school so I will have days when I don't have to be there so I am going to stitch, tidy, clean, read, snuggle, dream, potter, sow and sew! Keep safe my lovely friend and see you on the other side. xxx
