More Samples from Fibre in Form

Here are some of my samples from the Fibre-in-Form online workshop run by Lynda and Carol.
The first one has texture paste and scrim laid onto a box canvas and painted with acrylic paints and Lumieres.



This one has a fabric base and is painted with acrylics and Lumieres again.




Here I have threads couched down onto fabric and then painted.
The threads give such a great texture.



This one is Texture paste on canvas again painted with Acrylic paint and Lumieres



Lastly I have couched threads and fabric -painted it with black ink and then bleach was applied.I love the distressed look of this one.

Both of these ladies are very good teachers and if you are looking to learn about mixed media keep your eye out for any future classes that they may run.

Fibre-in-Form workshop--Textured Surfaces

I am taking part in the online course with Fibre-in-Form from those 2 amazing Textile artists Lynda Monk and Carol McFee.
The title is Textured Surfaces and that's just what it is all about.
I have only included 4 samples here because it is hard to get a decent picture of white on white samples.
But in saying that the first one has a bit of colour mainly because I used a bit of fabric that I had rusted and also a piece of natural coloured Mulberry Bark.
The fabrics are glued onto Calico and some Texture Paste has been stenciled onto it as well.




The second one has a calico base with scrim glued on and then some textured wallpaper and a texture paste stencil also.


Next is a box canvas with a texture paste stencil again.


Lastly is another stencil with texture paste on artists canvas that I purchased in an A4 book size.


I did use other fabrics ie cotton twill and cotton duck and pelmet vilene but like I said it was hard to get a good picture of them.
Next week we add colour so then you will get a better picture.
