Inspirational Blending on a Blending Board
About Inspirational Blending on a Blending Board
This class will provide the knowledge, tools, and techniques for identifying colors in a picture and creating a physical fiber representation of it on a blending board. We will discuss color theory, fiber blending techniques, color placement, and practical applications. At the conclusion of the class, participants will leave with the knowledge and confidence to blend their own unique fiber using a chosen picture as the source of inspiration.
This Fiber Arts Seminar is offered as part of the Maryland Sheep and Wool Winterfest and is limited to 20 students.
