snow white bird

It seems like yesterday we opened the show, but looking back the unfinished business exhibition has been up for 3 weeks now, time really does fly!  Yvonne at FibreWorks Gallery has the place looking wonderful and all this good weather certainly doesn’t hurt at all. The Sunshine Coast is certainly living up to its name.

I’m on my way back to the yurts for the weekend of July 5th and 6th. I will be teaching one of my favorite workshops  “Snow White Bird” . It’s based on one of the many creation stories featuring Raven in a starring role.

This is one of my versions ( I have 3 so far!) at the basting stage…..

I taught this workshop in England earlier this year and wanted to share a few images of the various  Ravens in progress and the lovely ladies who created them .

They’re all so different and reflect each of the makers thoughts about the legend. I really enjoy teaching this class, every student interprets the story in their own way and creates a really personal project.

There’s a couple of places left if you are interested in joining us – contact Yvonne at FibreWorks for all the information.

Hope you can join us!

Bye for now, Catherine

      Thanks so much- it was a great class. Too bad you cant join us but the commute from Winnipeg is a really big one!
