Experience the creative power of pencil, paint and pattern. Our inspiring Creative Arts tutor Susan Keverne is offering the chance to join a unique holiday in France for creative embroiderers whose artwork involves using a variety of mixed media, textiles and stitch.

Susan is well-known and respected for her lectures and workshop sessions with embroiderers in the UK. Now, for the first time, she is presenting a full five-day break with the French House Party in South-West France.

Using textile and fibre-based imagery to enhance paint on a canvas is an exciting and very contemporary craft medium, pushing the limits of stitch and fabric in order to exploit a variety of textures and effects in 21st Century art.

This course will provide inspiration, fire your imagination and open your mind to the dazzling possibities of embroidery and creative artistic expression.

A basic supply of paints, fabrics and other equipment will be provided, with advice given on any additional equipment needed on each specific course.
