A week-long mixed media art course in historic, beautiful Port Hope, Ontario
At Loyalist College Summer Art Experience
Loyalist College
Create an evocative and exciting art piece that combines the work of your hands with that of Mother Nature. Juxtapose fibre art with natural materials to create a framed, stitched, three-dimensional textile assemblage. Allow the rich textures, brilliant colours and nuanced lines of stitched textiles to interact with the mysterious beauty of the imprinted stone, the gentle branch, or a fragile leaf. Incorporate glowing copper and wire, fabric transfers of precious photos, or tell a story with the remnants of an heirloom quilt. Work with a variety of textiles, including remnants of your own stitched, embroidered and embellished work, new fabrics, and found pieces of textiles that catch your eye or speak to your heart. You will also be led through the process of finishing, mounting and framing the art piece. Frames, framing material and any other materials that participants might want will be available for purchase at cost from the me.
