Looking for a unique textiles class in Brisbane? Join master Powertex trainer Natalie Parish in this engaging workshop where you'll learn how to upcycle textiles and create your very own standing fairy or angel figurine.
Throughout three Friday morning sessions, you'll have the opportunity to delve into the world of design and creation. In the first class, you'll learn how to build the form of your figurine. Don't worry if you can't attend the set second or third class, as the finishing sessions can be negotiated.
The second session focuses on dressing your figurine through fabric hardening. While all materials are provided, you're welcome to bring your own unique pieces of memorabilia, broken jewellery, or scrappy textiles like lace to add a personal touch to your creation.
In the final session, you'll have the chance to embellish and add colour to your dried and hardened artwork. Discover the art of pigment blending, metallic highlighting, and dry-brushing techniques to make your figurine truly stand out.
These weekly sessions are perfect for participants of all abilities, allowing you to dedicate time to fully enjoy the project. Plus, the morning sessions help alleviate transportation and traffic concerns. This workshop is NDIS friendly, and support workers are warmly welcomed. If needed, an additional discounted morning session can be added to reduce any stress.
While this class is an advanced variation on the Powertex standing statue class, it remains beginner-friendly. Rest assured, you'll leave this workshop brimming with inspiration for your next art project or garden art creation. Your friends and family are sure to be amazed by your magnificent creation!
