MARCH WORKSHOP
REGISTRATION OPENS : SUNDAY, DECEMBER 15 at noon PST
Dots, dashes, lines, and other shapes have been used throughout history to communicate ideas and information. Each artist can develop their own recognizable style of visual communication through hand stitching with embroidery thread and beads. The development of this textured “hand writing” or visual communication is the focus of this 3-day workshop. We'll explore line, mass, visual movement, overlay, shading, and positive and negative space. Hand stitching with beads and embroidery thread is a meditative and expressive way to create textured shapes that express your feelings and ideas.
