Reveal, Heartlands, Sketchbooks & Mono-printing...............


Excellent meeting today, great fun was had by all. The reveal session of our finished Heartlands projects and accompaning sketchbook work, shows the wide range of techniques and design process we all go through. The photo below shows how, although we all worked on the same theme the pieces are so different, but sit together beautifully. 

Some of the finished pieces and sketchbooks
Then came the mono-printing session, with tables covered, gloved hands, fabrics, papers and paints at the ready, we were off.



Here is a selection of some very interesting prints and lots of lovely texture. I'm sure some of these fabrics
 will be seen in furture projects.






By the end of the day the room was covered with fabrics and papers drying, we even had printing over the top of some art work, what a creative bunch. Thanks for a lovely inspiring day 'Maids'.

We also had a show and tell of this months project 'Close Up', some beautiful pieces in various stages of completion, but we'll see more of them in future posts and the reveal next month.
Now, I need to get my skates on and finish this months piece, ready to start 'Seeds' our next challenge, busy, busy.
