Day Three




Setting up for the lecture on colour and value in the morning.

Some good progress has been made and weaving is beginning to come off the looms.  Students are exploring the relationship between density and the kind of quality of cloth that results.  Problems are being dealt with as they come up and some tips and tricks being shared.

As usual I'm focusing on ergonomics and efficiency, encouraging students to think analytically, ask the why question a lot, think through processes to decide if something is necessary...or not.

There is some angst, some amazement, some courage.  There appears to be a lot of learning going on and that is what this is all about.

There is still a lot of feeling overwhelmed, but I think that is beginning to ease as weaving commences.

All in all, a good first two days.
