LECTURE: “Inktense Pencils: Paint on Fabrics, Quilts, and More”
Inktense Pencils are unique: they are ink in pencil form, and can produce a wide range of effects, including pastel watercolors, or dramatic intense splashes of eye-catching color. The ink can be layered, can be loose and watery, or can be tightly controlled for outlines and geometric shapes. Plus, thread painting can be incorporated for more “wow” factor. All levels, from beginner to advanced artist, will enjoy experimenting with Inktense Pencils (no drawing experience needed.) You can stitch first, then paint or paint first, then stitch. Add textile medium, water, or aloe vera, and watch the magic happen. Samples will be shown of combinations of methods: lots of possibilities for art quilts or whole cloths quilts.
