This first week in embroidery focus has been on drawing in different and unusual ways to create new exciting and interesting drawings for this unit. From a drawing workshop focussed on drawing spirals in uncomfortable conditions, in a continuous line with each like 3mm apart- too mark making with materials like kitchen scourers and fuse terminals.
These workshops have
been really useful, educational and inspiring to the way of working and
thinking.In future, I will take a
different approach to my traditional drawing techniques, pushing myself out of
my comfort zone and setting myself tasks, as this creates much more interesting
and unusual drawings, with unusual lines and textures as produced in this weeks
workshops.
