Simple and fun exercises will help you to unlock, explore and expand your design potential applicable to textile projects. Learn the basics of design and build a solid base on which to further extend your practice. Throughout the workshop we will be exploring design principles including: line, shape, composition, contrast, tone and colour. Each week we will introduce new principles and explore some applications through creative play using collage and simple drawing techniques. Bring along your current projects for comment and suggestion and find inspiration for new areas to investigate.
