2021 Autumn School Ballarat

Students will go through all the stages of creating flowers from the silk, leather, suede  and EVA FOAM. This will include the preparation of materials, dying them, making patterns, assembling and finishing techniques.

In this workshop the students will have the opportunity to learn a famous Japanese flower making technique, Somebana. This enables the students to individualise each and every flower. The flowers made using this technique look much more realistic than flowers made with traditional flower making techniques. Based on the  Japanese silk flower making technique, students will learn how to apply this knowledge and skills to leather, suede  and EVA FOAM.

Students will make several custom leather, suede, silk and EVA FOAM flowers. They will also learn how to modify existing patterns and design their own flowers.
