This is Day 4 of the RSN’s Drawing Course Day Classes. They have been planned as a series to give you the skills and knowledge you need to have confidence in your own creative ideas and turn those into an embroidery
design. This is the day which brings it all together: working from research materials you have drawn, photographed or collected, you will look at what goes in to creating a design, and think about what stitches, threads and fabrics. You will need to have done at least Drawing Basics first, or have some
equivalent experience.
On this day you will:
Consider different ways of collecting and storing ideas in different forms.
Learn some principles of composition and design: divine proportion, lines of action, scale, repetition and harmony. Practise these in some drawing.
Understand how to select and bring together mark making, tone and colour.
Consider how these operate within textiles: what properties do thread, fabric and stitch have?
Go through the design process to create a sample design from a brief provided by the tutor.
There will be plenty of time to work on a design from your own source materials, and Caroline will go round every student to discuss your work. We will start with some observational drawing practise.
Materials:
• A4 Sketchbook – cartridge, soft-bound or a pad is fine.
• Graphite Pencils: H, B, 2B, 6B
