Sandra's workshop will involve using digital design methods with mixed media collage and composition.
'Digital Imagery for Stitch' Working to a personal theme, photographs, artwork and collaged images are heat transferred onto cloth.
Design, composition and basic skills in Photoshop Elements will be reviewed and acrylic painted and embellished surfaces explored.
Painted paper, colour photocopies and fabric images will then be combined to create a stitch bound book in addition to larger stitched pieces providing a wonderful source of inspiration for future work.

An approach with different materials and marks.
'Illusion & Imagery of a landscape'
This workshop explores and utilises the qualities of transparency and translucency of both hard and soft materials. These will be combined with textile and mixed media processes to discover how to create illusion within the imagery of a landscape.
The workshop allows you to develop approaches which look at dimension, form, balance & rhythms through the combined use of screen print, etching, stitch & manipulative methods.
Initial design development helps generate personal ideas which will be inspired by the landscape & mans influences upon it.
