In this class, I will be teaching you the basics of how to embroider simple patterns onto… watercolour paper! Hi, I’m Clarissa, a geometric artist and experienced teacher, based in the UK. In my own creative practice I enjoy expenting with different mixed media techniques to enhance the underlying geometry of my artworks. One of my all favourite techniques is paper stitching. This slow, meditative process adds a delicate, tactile finish to elevate even the most simple designs. In this engaging course I will share my tips and experience as I guide you through the steps of constructing, colouring and stitching your own geometric embroidery project on paper. In this class you'll learn How to construct a simple geometric motif with compass and ruler Tips on achieving accuracy in your geometric designs How to choose your colour palette Which threads and paper types are suitable for paper stitching How to pierce and prepare your paper for stitching How to plan your stitching sequence And how to tighten and secure your stitches to finish your artwork You’ll be creating An elegant, hand-stitched geometric artwork you’ll be proud to display or gift.
