Two workshops- one in person, one online
This Workshop will allow you to discover how combining various elements of design and colour
can result in a woven piece that is both unique and exciting. Linda Wilson, our instructor will guide you through your discovery by examining basic design and principles through a series of yarn exercises. You will experiment with line, shape, focus and dominance to create different weaving results. Next you will use these principles in combination with colour exercises and colour theory to enable you, the weaver to see how balance and repetition can be used to add interest to the woven cloth. Once you have decided on a design for your personal project, you will make your warp and the magic begins on the looms in week 2. In Week 2 students will then apply these principles to a woven project geared to their level and/or the loom available.
The In-Person Workshop will be held at the QWSG Studio at Qualicum Commons, 744 Primrose Street, Qualicum Beach, BC
