Fabulous two days at ArtVanGo teaching the Putting on the Glitz technique. A very talented group who all brought their own skills to apply to the technique and produced eight very different pieces of work.
 |
| Work by Yvonne using her own design |
 |
| Fabulous leaves by Judy |
Using black velvet as a base fabric we first used Lumiere fabric paints
 |
| Sea inspired by Liz |
The second layer was using bonded sheers to add a different texture and subtle layer of colour and sheen
 |
| A spiritual piece by Liz |
 |
| Forest in the snow by Penny (wolf to be added) |
 |
| Yvonne using her own design shape |
The third layer of transfoils were placed on top.
And finally highlights of glitter film added.
On the second day we stitched using a variety of threads and machine techniques.
 |
| Jenny's piece with a lovely colour combination |
Most pieces are a work in progress with further machine and hand stitch to be added. Maybe even the odd bead or sequin for extra 'sparkle'
 |
| Lana's piece evolved over the two days |
My technique workshops are all about each participant being able to use the various techniques to interpret in their own style - the result is eight entirely different pieces of work. And none of them remotely like the tutor's samples!
