Workshop: Stitched Self-Portrait

Stitched Self-Portrait Eyes Shut
Teacher: Suzy Farren

There is absolutely nothing more fun than creating a self-portrait with your eyes shut. Your work will look like a Picasso every time. With your eyes shut, you also shut down your inner critic, offering you a wonderful opportunity for freedom of expression.  In this brief class, you’ll pencil a few self-portraits on paper with your eyes shut. You can draw just your face or your entire body. Then you’ll select one image to stitch onto cloth. Choose from a variety of fabrics and threads and perhaps embellish with words or cloth scraps. The only dilemma will be determining which side of the stitched piece is the real you! $35/person
