It is day 2 of the Lura Schwarz-Smith workshop and the group are doing amazing things. Not surprising since Lura is such a bundle of energy and has such a wealth of knowledge about what she is teaching. You are missing a great class! But don’t worry, we’ll have her back here again.

So here is a look at what the class is up to.

This is Lura explaining the important “dot test” to check the suitability of the fabric for ink drawing.

Here is Nell working with the overhead projector to create her composition made up of several images.

Lura’s wonderful collection of inks.

Here is Sandy working with the lightbox.

Toby practicing with the ink applicator brush to get just the right shading technique before starting on her project.

This is Sandy’s work in progress. It’s going to be fantastic.

A couple examples of Lura’s drawing on fabric. I love the horse! This photo doesn’t do it justice.

I can’t wait to see how everyone’s projects progress. I’ll keep you posted!
