Creating Charactors Workshop at YSP

Here are a few photos of us in action at the Creating Charactors workshop jan 29th at YSP...

 Zara Wood's Little Treasures were inspiration for the embroidery!

With thanks to all the lovely folks who attended for making it such a huge success! And to Amanda, Jo and of course the totally brilliant Zara Wood. We sketched and stitched and explored with thread and pencils. A wonderfully inspirational day at an amazing venue.

Here's My woody charactor collaberation!

November is a super exciting time here at M.A.P! Saturday 27th sees my first embroidery workshop colaboration with the marvelous Illustrator and Artist Zara Wood! During the day you will not only learn traditional hand embroidery stitches (with Yours truly)....but how to bring the Woody inspired character, which will be imagined and created during the mornings drawing workshop, into your very own little treasure (see image above).....

This marvellous day will be set against the stunning autumnally drenched backdrop of The Yorkshire Sculpture Park...what else could you wish for? I'll tell Thee.... Mirror Mime ... thats what! Zara's inspirational and utterly enchanting exhibition opened last weekend at YSP and boasts 20 new stunning illustrated works, as well as much anticipated favourites... LittleTreasures, letter pressed cards and totes. I'm sold!
