EXPLORATORY TEXTILES

Course dates for Exploratory Textiles are set a month apart with ample opportunuites in between to develop personal ideas through the responses to both practical suggestions and the various challenges set.

It is hoped that those that apply to do this course will have some understanding of textiles or at least an enquiring mind that is essential in all artistic pursuits.

Each class will offer new and practical tasks which students can take on board or not. What is essential that students can understand and appreciate the necessity to go on a journey but not know the destination.......TESTING AND SAMPLING IDEAS are required and the keeping of a sketchbook to show this journey through the development of ideas. The journey for each one of you will be different as will your destination.

BOBBY BRITNELL

My roots lie in theatre costumes and tailoring and later as a secondary school teacher. Since 1984, I have worked as a free-lance artist teaching textiles and art, to all ages and levels up to BA degree students. My own work as a teacher holds as much relevance as my work as an artist, both go hand in hand. This website shows a glimpse of some of my work.
