Vancouver Island School of Art

This course focuses on creating collage compositions using fabric and stitching. Students will learn some basic skills and how to supplement, subvert or alter these techniques to create expressive and personal projects. Students will have the option of using fabrics of personal significance. Examples of contemporary artists who use fabric in their art practice, the historic use of collage, and its relevance today as a tool to express ideas about place, politics and identity will also be covered. Course format includes slide presentations, hands-on studio time and group critiques. By the end of this course students will develop a strong understanding of composition and design using fabric as the main medium.

New Work

At the exhibition in Ladysmith our Surface Design group has a smaller exhibition entitled Undercurrents, a grouping of 10" x 10" work in matching frames. These pieces are all for sale for $195.00 which makes them a wonderful price for any collector.
My submissions are entitled Stitch and Space #1, #2 and #3 and are hand dyed, printed, stamped and stitched. I hope you'll be able to come to the show!
