What A Brilliant Weekend!
Good Morning and how was your weekend? Ours was fabulous! The Multi Media class that took place this Saturday was a huge success and everyone had such amazing outcomes!
If you haven't already guessed this will be the theme of today's blog and before we get started, if you would like to all of the pictures from the class then head over to our Facebook page :)
Moving on and getting down to business. Obviously we were very busy here on Satrday and so we didn't have time to post at all! We're very sorry and we assure you that we try our hardest to find 2 minutes to post online but sometimes it's just impossible! However, we'll move away fr4om that subject and get down to the real point of today's blog.
So what is Multi Media?
Multi media is using a various range of mediums together and/or in different ways to reach an overall result.
Example?
When using distress inks you can spray water over the top of your colours and dab it with tissue paper to remove some of the colour. This is called spritzing. This is an example of multi media because you have used two mediums (water and distress ink) to create one effect.
So now that you have a better understanding of Multi Media, let's move on to what we actually made :)
The class ran from 10am - 2pm, and during that time the ladies were taught how to use various mediums that we have in the shop such as sprays/sprintzers, structure paste, distress inks, crackle paint and more!
Each lady was given a blank canvas, and then let loose with all the materials we put out on the table...
And this is what they got to play with!
Our lovely Pat showed all the ladies various techniques and helped them to create some amazing work and we had a fabulous suprise when our new lady came up with some fabulous meanings behind their canvas'...
A canvas made for this ladies grand daughter who is going up to high school...
- The weaves of the lace that go to the key that unlock the cogs of time to the blooms that blossom in to her future.
A canvas that was made to hang in this ladies new summer house...
-This key unlocks the summer house of dreams with the waves of thought that flow through the cogs of the mind, to the sparkle of future that we do not know
This canvas was made for the ladies new little niece Pippa.
- The beginning
of life which develops and blooms in to the flowers with the key that opens the
heart of the new baby girl.
This was made by our new lady, who wanted to try something new and we say well done.
- The cogs of
life are peaceful with the footprints leading to the key to the heart of my
family and my garden that is my sanctuary.
So all in all a wonderful class with some breath taking results. We hope that this had inspired you to have a go at sime multi media yourself and if there's anything you'd like to know then pop down and see us and we'll do our best to help or ring us on 01562 510203
