Examples - Liz Cooksey The most recent workshop I attended was taken by Liz Cooksey as part of the Creative Thread Workshops programme organised by Linda Robinson in Garstang, Lancashire. Liz is a textile artist producing mixed media framed and 3D pieces inspired by the natural environment. Working with wire, crochet, paper, textiles and stitch, Liz creates beautiful natural forms. Examples of Liz Cooksey's work Liz Cooksey Liz Cooksey - 3D Flowers & Leaves Liz Cooksey - Detail with Hare Liz Cooksey - detail To start, we were given a pack of wire forms and could choose fabric, paper and threads from Liz's stash... Starting point Fabrics & threads to choose from Liz had lots of examples of her work and the elements that they were made from for us to look at. Her instructions were clear and we were soon busy making our own elements. Examples - Liz Cooksey Examples - Liz Cooksey Examples - Liz Cooksey We spent the morning and some of the afternoon making these elements. Here's what I came up with... My elements It was then time to select the elements we wanted to use in our final piece. Linda provided some excellent cake for us to munch while deciding and Liz gave us various options for putting them together. Here's mine... My Finished Piece It was great to see everyone's pieces at the end of the day. They all turned out to be wonderful... Workshop participants work Workshop participants work Thanks to Liz for a great workshop and Linda for the fab cake! Wyre Aqueduct & Lancaster Canal Garstang is a pretty little place with some pleasant walks along the River Wyre and the Lancaster Canal. Being a bit of a bridge fanatic I wandered along to have a look at the aqueduct. Altogether it was a lovely day!
Hi ya! Today I would like to share the art of Liz Cooksey with you. I found her work through Pinterest. You know this bunny piece caught my eye right away. ;) What I love about her work is the brilliant combination of elements. To me these patchwork sculptures are so interesting to look at with all the textures, shapes and dimensions. I find her work to be charming with each piece telling it's own little story. I'm going to save my pennies and purchase a piece from her. Do hop over and visit Liz. She has several galleries you can scroll through. I do hope you enjoy discovering these artists. I have a really fun board on Pinterest. It's called Textile and Fiber Art. Hop over and take a look around and follow my board if you like. (Don't forget my shop is open, but I won't be mailing any orders until July 20th) Light, love and hugs to you, Michelle and the Bunnies
