***ONLY ONE ROOM REMAINING***

COURSE OVERVIEW

During this workshop,  you will explore the exciting mark-making qualities of monoprinting and hand stitching on fabric to create a set of small fabric collages.  Monoprinting is a joyous serendipitous process, that allows you to be freer and less controlled in your approach. 

The wonderful surrounding landscape will be your source of inspiration, gathering information using simple sketches and notes and encouraged to look closely and in detail.

Amarjeet nandhra biography of christopher columbus Whether you want to try something new, revive your passion, or take your skills to the next level; we have a huge range of courses for you to explore. All our courses here at City Lit are taught by expert tutors such as published authors, academics, practising artists, and experienced professionals. Our friendly, supportive, and inspiring tutors are here to boost your confidence and motivate you at every step. We always ensure that your journey with us is enjoyable, positive, and thought-provoking. We offer online courses and in-person courses.

Once back in the studio, these marks, colours, textures and patterns will inform your prints, using reductive, additive and drawn techniques. 

These layered fabric prints will be appliquéd to produce a set of small collages. There will be an emphasis on experimenting with colour combinations, scale and proportions to create exciting and bold compositions.

The final stage of creating the collages will be to add hand stitching.

Hand stitching is incredibly versatile, adding layers and building depth through additional mark-making and embellishment.

During the week, you will have one-to-one discussions on developing personal pathways and possible future directions you could take. This course is suitable for everyone.

She went on to gain a first class honours degree in Creative Arts. She has exhibited nationally and internationally , both independently and as a member of Studio 21 Textile art and Textile Study Group . 

Amarjeet’s teaching experience covers a range of courses; printmaking, mixed media and contemporary stitched textiles.

She has taught at Diploma level, City & Guilds and Adult Education, both in Spain and the UK. 

Her current practice explores the narrative of cloth within a social, economic and cultural setting.  This work examines the hidden meaning, looking beyond the aesthetic sensibility of these textiles.

Print, mixed media, and stitch provide the foundation to express these ideas.
