BAFA April Meeting

BAFA members met in April.  Our design exercise was one by Susie Monday.  We were to pretend we were an animal, making the sounds of the animal, then collage a paper interpretation.  We also created a foam-plate stamp and rubber stamp to use on our collage (See Fig. 1).  Sylvia showed her positive/negative design exercise from the previous month (Fig. 2) 

Show and tell was impressive as always.  Dot showed her thread trash work (Fig. 3-4), one of them worked on a base I began and never finished.  I showed my thread trash scarf (Fig. 5).  Various Classwork and other work-in-progress was shown - Sylvia's portrait of her nieces (Fig. 6), Susan's work from online classes (Fig. 7-9).  Members, Dot, Jerry and Kathy showed classwork from a Shibori workshop with Debby Maddy (Fig. 10-14).
