9 and 10 October 2010: LINDA COLSH (B/USA) - SCRIBBLE & SPLAT: WORKING WITH LINE & SHAPE Workshop - 2 days
This class emphasizes composition, with the focus on self-created, surface-designed fabrics for design of unique art quilts. Spend two days working with paint on fabric to create a personal palette of art cloth for making art quilts. Explore lines and shapes in the fabric patterns as you make your own fabric. Learn how to develop these into effective designs. Students will learn to recognize effective composition in artwork and how to direct the viewer’s eye by arranging elements on a surface. Beginning with “blank” fabric, students will create their own unique fabrics and will design a small work to put into practice what they have learned in class about composition and design.

Linda Colsh - Biography
Linda Colsh builds her artworks from the images and ideas that she collects as photographs, drawings and writings. She is known for her images of elderly women and men, taken anonymously from the streets where she finds them, stripped of their context, and reworked with new narratives and imagined scenarios. Each work begins with blank white or black cloth, which Linda alters with dye, discharge and paint. She works with design software to develop her images for printing by digital or traditional methods. Her process is weighted to designing and preparing content and cloth before the actual stitching together. An American residing in Everberg, Belgium, since 1990, Linda Colsh has lived in America, Asia and Europe. A lifelong artist with two degrees in Art History, she exhibits in the US and internationally. Her work is published and in collections worldwide. Among the awards her artwork has won are the European Quilt Triennial first prize and top prize of the Fabric of Legacies Exhibition in Colorado.
Artist’s Statement Making art is something I do for the challenge of design and the joy of working with dye, paint, and cloth. The peripatetic life I lead puts me in places of immense inspiration, where I observe, analyze, and assimilate all kinds of imagery. The images I create and use make up the stories I tell and statements I make. My series on aging presents my observations about growing old and the issues of being elderly. The art quilts in this series put my characters in developed spaces – each work is a unique narrative in a specific environment. My other current series explore issues of identity and privacy (the anonyms series and my umbrella series) and concepts of beauty (flower series).

9. und 10. Oktober 2010: LINDA COLSH (B/USA) - SCRIBBLE & SPLAT: WORKING WITH LINE & SHAPE Workshop - 2 Tage
In diesem Kurs wird auf Gestaltung Wert gelegt mit dem Schwerpunkt, mittels Surface-Design Stoffe herzustellen, die anschliessend zur Kreation von einzigartigen Art Quilts vewendet werden können. Sie werden zwei Tage lang Stoffe mit Farben bearbeiten, um so eine persönliche Palette von Art-Stoffen herzustellen, mit denen Sie Art-Quilts kreieren können. Während diesem Prozess erforschen Sie Linien und Formen in den Stoffmustern und Sie lernen, diese zu wirkungsvollen Designs zu entwickeln. Zudem werden Sie lernen, wirkungsvolle Gestaltung in Kunstwerken zu erkennen und den Blick des Betrachters zu steuern: mittels gezielter Platzierung der Elemente auf der Oberfläche. Sie beginnen mit "leerem" Stoff und stellen daraus ihre eigenen, einzigartigen Stoffe her. Anschliessend entwerfen Sie ein kleines Werk, um das, was Sie im Kurs über Gestaltung und Design gelernt haben, in die Praxis umzusetzen.

9 e 10 ottobre 2010: LINDA COLSH (B/USA) - SCRIBBLE & SPLAT: WORKING WITH LINE & SHAPE Workshop - 2 giorni
La composizione è il punto centrale di questo corso. Si lavora con le tecniche del surface design per creare stoffe uniche che possono essere utilizzate per fare Art Quilt unici. Passate due giorni lavorando le stoffe con colori e create una paletta di stoffe "art" per fare un art quilt. Creando le vostre stoffe, esplorate linee e forme nel design. Imparate come svilupparle per arrivare ad un design di grande effetto. Imparate anche a riconoscere una composizione effettiva in un'opera d'arte e come arrangiare gli elementi sulla superficie per dirigere l'occhio dello spettatore. Iniziando con la stoffa bianca, create le vostre stoffe uniche e disegnate un lavoro piccolo mettendo in pratica tutto ciò che avete imparato al corso.
