PATTERN- AN ELEMENT OF ART and a BOOK SIGNING

Been playing with ethnic patterns these last few weeks. These are interpretations of the ikat pattern. Each piece is approximately 8"x10" .Heavy stock cream colored paper is the base. I draw the patterns on copper, add collage elements, add more color with acrylics, caran d'ache, and colored pencil. Finally, I add stitching and vintage fabric.

Also joining us will be artist Leslie Marsh. We will have artwork from the book and discussing the "secrets and passions" of mixed media artists. More HERE.
