Ideas Development in Collage
When I am playing at home I spend as much time working with art materials – paper, paint, pens, glue, stitch, thread, fabric – as I do actually making art quilts. While I don’t do the carefully detailed drawings that some do, I spend a lot of time making repetitive marks and doing collage. While generally I have a specific theme in mind, sometimes an idea will come out of “left field” just because I have been playing.
In this class I will show some of my techniques and show you how to adapt them for your ideas. On day one we will work with paper collage and on day 2 will translate one of those ideas into a small art quilt.
