Today it all about ME!!! Yeah. My name is Desiree Habicht and in Session One I will be teaching you how to use colored pencils, my favorite being Inktense pencils to create a beautiful small art quilt. I will also be showing you some techniques for textures, resists and other ways you can use these pencils in your fiber art!!
Get to know me a bit better!
I have been asked some questions I hope you enjoy! Look for my question to you and answer in the comments!
2. Tell us about your studio! Where in the world is it? Is it clean or messy? is it hidden away or out in the open?
My studio is a converted bedroom in my home but I also have other work areas around the house. For instance, part of the garage is a cutting room, part of my bedroom is a sketching and painting place, my closet hold much of my fabric lines and the guest room is full of art! LOL My husband says the house is really my studio! My actual studio room is usually in a bit of a mess. Since its a bedroom I can close it off from viewing and leave things out as I work. This way if I can work for a short time it is ready for me to pop in and create!
3. What is your favorite color and why?
HMMM, that is hard since I love all color! I think I love greens and oranges. I think of nature when I see them, fall, holidays, all the good things for me!
4. What is your least favorite thing to do when you're working on a piece?
Cook, clean, answer the phone or go to bed! I just want to keep working until I want to stop
5. If you could fly where would you go?
I would fly across the country and view all the amazing National parks from the air!
6. Tell us about the class you're teaching in The Fiber Art Connection. What do you hope your students will learn from this?
