Expressive Mini Landscapes

Hayley Perry
Description
This workshop will cover everything you need to know to get started hooking landscapes with mixed materials. During this class we will cover the basics necessary to design and execute a mini landscape piece with expressive colors and textures! This style of hooking is often considered “painterly” or “impressionistic” because of the focus on color, texture, and abstraction. We will begin with a short lecture and then start our designs.
