Hot - Contemporary Fiber workshop - Susan Lenz

HOT is a two-day workshop exploring heat-activated processes for contemporary fiber
arts. Participants are encouraged to work intuitively with a wide range of polyester
stretch velvets, metallic foiling sheets, chiffon scarf overlays, Angelina fibers, feathers,
iron-on adhesives, and snippets of other novelty materials. Susan’s style of instruction
is a series of in-depth demonstrations followed by ample time for experimentation and
discovery.

Demonstrations will include painting the adhesive, fusing layers of synthetics, surface design, hand embroidery, self-guided free-motion stitching, melting techniques, and matting/mounting fiber arts for framed presentations. Time will spent on individual critiques and open discussions on inspiration, professional development, and the working life of a studio artist. Susan’s thirty-year background as a certified custom picture framer will enhance the workshop. All levels.

CLASS FEE: $360

MATERIALS FEE: $40
