Wool Painting workshop and talk at Stratford-upon-Avon Guild of Weavers,Spinners and Dyers. 

I had a fantastic  weekend with the ladies from Stratford-upon-Avon Guild of Weavers,Spinners and Dyers.

On Friday 19th of June I delivered a talk called ”  My creative journey” at the Methodist Church Hall. The following Saturday I taught a wool painting workshop at the same venue!

What a great location, right opposite the famous Holy Trinity Church!  My talk and the workshop were very well received and I had such a pleasure working with lovely group of enthusiastic and very helpful people. The members of the guild had a chance to look at some of my original work and ask me specific questions about some techniques and materials that I use.

Here I display some photos of the wool painting that the ladies created. I am amazed at how different they are. Each picture shows a specific mood and  different effects of shade and light . The pictures also demonstrate  deep personal connection to the subject.
