Screen, Print and Stitch
Are you
looking to build your skills as a surface design artist? Do you want to
learn specific techniques that will help you to create beautiful fabrics
for your art? Perhaps you are new to the world of mono printing,
thickened dyes, screen printing and stamping and would like a solid
foundation of knowledge that you can refer to again and again?
Then “Screen, Print and Stitch”
is made just for you! In the past, these lessons have been separate
workshops, but since so many of my students enroll in more than one of
my surface design workshops it made sense to build a special group
package with tons of value-added information. So now “Screen, Print and Stitch” is a more extensive journey into helping you build those skills that you’ve been wanting for your textile art!

30 minutes of conversation, advice and more….that will move you along your Surface Design journey! I’ll work with you to decide the best way to spend those 30 minutes together….it might be Skype, email, phone or ??
I’ve been a dyer and surface design artist for over 15 years. I’ve taken loads of workshops, I have advanced diplomas in textiles and art. Name a technique, I’ve tried it. Sometimes it takes lots of skill and practice to achieve success. And I get that….its part of being an artist!
Now, I want the same for you! I don’t keep anything back, I’m willing to share everything I know and I want you to have the value of what I’ve learned.
All of this is just for you because I know that colour and beauty is what we crave and having it on fabric just makes life so much better, right?
Be part of the fun and learn all about the new ways to create those gorgeous fabrics!
