Come and share the excitement and playfulness of this process as I guide you through 10 step by step videos towards creating a beautiful coastal landscape inspired by my work.
You will learn how to create a coastal textile art piece by:
You’ll learn how to print beautiful soft coastal textures onto a selection of different weights of fabric including sheers which will then be layered to bring depth of colour & pattern to your work.
If you love textile art but sometimes look at the bundles of fabric you’ve collected over the years and wonder how or what to create? Or you are just simply looking for some inspiration to move you forward and give you focus then this course is perfect for you.
It’s a great opportunity to bring neglected or recycled fabrics back to life and give them a new creative purpose.
We all have a creative side but it is just a matter of finding the right medium and way of working to let that creativity flow. Textile Art is such a fascinating and exciting medium to work in, it offers you the opportunity for experimenting and exploring. It gives you a place to play and combine techniques and even break the rules.
All through this process you will be encouraged to experiment and explore different possibilities to help build your confidence in your own creativity.
I’m Deborah Campbell and I’m a mixed media/textile artist based in Kilmacolm on the West of Scotland. I have a fascination for bringing recycled fabrics back to life, through combining print and stitch. I trained in Printed Textiles at Glasgow School of Art and have a wide knowledge and experience of printing on fabric.
My textile artwork is inspired by Scotland’s Coastal Landscape and Birdlife. Since art school I have always been fascinated by print, however my approach to print now is much more painterly and spontaneous using quite simply methods of printing, which don’t require a huge amount of equipment. I love to work onto many different fabric textures including organza and gauze which give me the option to create depth of colour and pattern through layering. These fabrics are then collaged together and I use my free motion sewing machine needle and thread as a drawing tool to create complex organic artworks.
Here are some of the materials you will need, a lot of what I like to use can be sourced from around the house at no cost. However the following show a list of what you might have to source online or at a local art store.
You’ll need:
Once you sign up, you can go to each worksheet which will have a list of materials needed at each stage and a link of where to purchase these online. Equally you can go to your search engine and source your own suppliers.
All through this process you will be encouraged to experiment and explore different possibilities to help build your confidence in your own creativity.
You will have the opportunity to join my Facebook Group which is a fantastic place to share your work and get feedback as well as ask questions about the course.
