Monica Thompson lives and works in Missoula, Montana. She studied Fibers and Graphic Design at the University of Michigan and Textiles at the Penland School of Crafts in Penland, NC, where she was awarded the Edwina Bringle Scholarship for a student showing excellence in textiles.
Warm-up + Project:
This week, we are taking a look at Monica Thompson's textile art. The organic shapes, color palette, and movement are very appealing. The images I have selected can inspire a creative response in drawing, painting, paper collage or even fabric.
Please choose a medium to begin to create your piece.
Possible materials:
- Paint
- Markers
- Paper
- Printing with stamps or use of stencils
- Fabric
Let's keep the material simple in order not to overwhelm the creative process.
The goal is to relax and enjoy this creative time!
