Round is a contemporary textile exhibition by textile artist Gail Hawes. An experimental textile artist, she uses unusual materials to explore individuality in a world of mass consumerism. More known for stitched textiles, in this exhibition she includes techniques such as felting, hand dying of hand spun wool and fabric manipulation to explore the subject.

Finally finished my City and Guilds Level 2 and was fortunate enough to get a distinction with my final project being my large coral reef picture. It turned out to be more purple than I imagined with more of the mount showing than I wanted but I like purple so no harm done. There are many techniques used including heating lots of chiffon, Tyvek, Lutradur and 3D medium with a heat gun as well as hand stitching and beading. I have extended this work into different colours mounted on a canvas.

the stimulus i chose was reflections, this was board one exploring the theme
