Print, Collage, Stitch

Print , Collage, Stitch - a workshop with Sally Tyrie at Fibre Arts Winter School.

These pieces are small collages (15cm x 15cm) of small pieces of the papers that I printed in the first two days.

For the first two days the focus was on producing a collection of mono print papers. There was lots of overprinting to add depth and texture to the prints.

The first print

This plate was prepared for overprinting the page

The first print overprinted

And then two more times

This page was then torn and used in the cover for this book



A few pages in the book

There pages could be worked into over and over.

This piece had stitch added and some unpicked which made small holes. It was then inked from behind and depending on the paper had varying amounts of ink bleed through to the front.

I braved the elements and ventured out 

To this exhibition. As a ‘mad cat lady’ how could I not.

Some of the many artworks in the exhibition.
