Woven Colors

Sample Project by Ms. Ammons

This week, we will take a break from drawing, and we will use strips of paper to practice our weaving skills.  You will practice using color, pattern, contrast and balance.  You have all done weaving before, so it should be a review.  I will use magazine pages for the sample art, but you can also color or paint your own paper.

Just think of a time you have created an ABAB pattern.  To weave, the basic pattern is:  over (A), under (B), over (A), under (B).  Look at some of the examples of beautiful woven art, and then watch the video below to see how you can make a woven masterpiece at home!
