SUMMARY:Guild Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Fine Gelfand\nThe NOH coat\, a creative approach to limited materials.\nFine used shibori dyed strips as a surface design element but also interwove them for parts of the NOH coat. She will show you how she got from a motley collection of fabric strips to an elegant\, lightweight and visually intriguing coat. \nFine will explain how she broke down the design process into 40 questions that anyone can use for designing anything from a garment to a rug. Fine guarantees a less stressful creative process with the clarity you gain through asking these specific questions. But she does not promise a spectacular result every time! The essence of any creative endeavor will always remain a mystery. Your most important abilities are to tolerate uncertainty (temporarily\, to give serendipity a chance) and to muster the courage to jump off the cliff into creative chaos. \n\nBiography\nFine  Gelfand\,  (pronounced: Feena)\nHue & Dye Textiles \nAs a child in Germany I taught myself to embroider and ever since I have been irretrievably enmeshed in textiles. I was introduced to basic weaving in high school but didn’t own a rigid heddle loom until after I got married and moved to the US in 1967. I immediately wove fabric for a coat and skirt and found that I had to teach myself to sew.  I was a weaver for a long time but since I received my certificate in Textile Decoration from the City & Guilds of London program in 2004 I am primarily a surface designer and delight in creating unique garments\, millinery\, accessories and art for the wall.  I think my talent lies in conjuring new relationships between diverse materials and techniques; perpetually asking: What if…?  Inspired by the overwhelming beauty in nature my work continues to be propelled by a lifelong passion for texture and color in all its forms.  \nRecent shows \n2021 “Yoshiko’s Folly”\, solo show\, shibori hats\, PNQ&FAMuseum \n2021 “Birds of a Feather”\, LaConner Quilt &Fiber Arts Museum \n2020 “Reflections”\, LaConner Quilt & Fiber Arts Museum \n2019 “WISD members Bayview Show”\, Clinton\, WA \n2018 Raising the Surface\, WISD\, La Conner Quilt & Fiber Arts Museum \n2017 Fiber Fusion\, WA Surface Design Assoc.\,  Schack Art Center\, Everett\,  \n2016 Beyond The Surface\, WISD\, La Conner Quilt & Textile Mus. \n2015  WISD at WICA\, WISD members show \n2014 “Out of the Blue”\, La Conner Quilt and Textile Museum\, La Conner\, WA \n2014 “Arts Alive”\, Langley\, WA 2013  The Latimer Quilt and Textile Center\, Life On The Left Edge \n2013 “Fiber Art”\, Schack Art Center\, Everett\, WA \n2012  RAGS\, Wearable Art Show\, Tacoma\, WA \n2012 Texture\, Blue Horse Gallery\, Bellingham\, May 6 – 28\, 2012  \n2010  “The Garden As Muse and Medium”\, collaborative show with photographer Joe Menth\, Fine Balance Imaging Studio\, Whidbey Island\, WA \n2010   RAGS wearable art show\, Tacoma\, WA\, Jurors’ Choice Award \n2009   Exposition Chapeau -Creation\, Rencontres Internationales des Arts du Chapeau\, France

SUMMARY:Guild Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Giovanna Imperia\nTopic: Weaving with Unusual Materials\nIn this program\, we’ll find answers to questions we’ve had and didn’t know who to ask.  What is polyurethane?  Why would I want to use thermoplastic?  What is metal\, what is metallic?  Can I weave with either one on my loom?  And much\, much more.  We’ll learn about the idiosyncrasies of a wide variety of funky and futuristic yarns\, including handling\, warping\, weaving\, braiding\, etc.  The talk will cover selecting the right yarns for the look and feel that we may want and using their tricky ways effectively.   \nGiovanna also offers workshops with hands on\, using these unusual materials. \nTopic: Sept COSW Meeting\nTime: Sep 20\, 2023 09:30 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada) \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/89979314926?pwd=RlIyODJ6MG5YY2JyMEdjY2tiOGVyUT09 \nMeeting ID: 899 7931 4926\nPasscode: 088527
