Beautiful surroundings

The retreat will begin around 2pm on Friday 24th April

We'll start with an afternoon workshop in which both groups will create a 'nature notebook' using a variety of interesting papers.

 

Saturday morning will begin with a gentle wander into the Lickey Hills (this is a very short stroll from the venue) - whilst in the woodland we'll record marks, line, shapes and aim to capture the essence of the surroudnings in our notebook.

Join Liske & Claire

Our woodland observations will be the starting point for creating abstract stamps and stencils.

We will work onto a variety of fabrics including lutradur, organza and organdie, using fabric paints in conjunction with gelli plate print & monoprinting. Our deisgn focus will be on colour, collage, applique and hand-stitch in order to translate the beauty of the surroundings and create an abstract collection of simple yet considered textile art pieces.

Group size 20-24
