FOLK ART/DECORATIVE PAINTING
This style of painting is often used in florals, and the most common British version is Canal Art (Roses & Castles). It is a skill anyone can learn using particular brush stroke techniques and is therefore suitable for absolute beginners.
The talk would include demonstrations, images of what can be achieved as well as samples of work (some items may be available for sale) and the different surfaces it can be applied to.
POWERTEX
This is a fabric hardening, non-toxic water based product that when dry, and following a 3-week ‘curing’ period becomes weatherproof. It is suitable for use on a wide range of materials including wood, metal and glass.
A demonstration would be provided as to how it works, together with (in true Blue Peter fashion) one made earlier and dried to demonstrate how colour can be added using the dry-brush technique. I will also bring a selection of sample items to show you finished results of just what you can ‘sculpt’.
Workshops for either Folk Art or Powertex can be arranged exclusively for your members or, you would be more than welcome to attend workshops at my own home studio in Leamington Spa. If you would like to be kept informed of when workshops are running, please sign up to my newsletter by clicking HERE, or find details on my website: https://www.thearcshed.co.uk

Working for Auntie – I was a graphic designer for the BBC for 13 years and worked on shows as diverse as the Queen’s Christmas Speech, Our Friends in the North, Tracey Beaker and Foyles War. I have numerous examples of sequences, storyboards and artworks to show and I was BAFTA nominated for my work on Cambridge Spies.
Playing With Knives – this is a craft that I practice myself. I am self taught, and have built up into a small business of printed merchandise featuring my designs. The talk covers international aspects of paper cutting, a bit of history, techniques, popularity and my own take on it and where it has taken me. A couple of years ago I was featured on BBC4’s ‘Make! Craft Britain’ demonstrating and teaching paper cutting. there’s a link to the programme on my website http://christinegreencrafts.co.uk
Patchwork: Bust the rules and get creative – I have been patchworking since I was a child and have made numerous quilts over the years. I have a very creative and liberating approach to patchworking, throwing out most of the rules that many makers adhere to, recycling wherever possible and creating unique improvised pieces. I reference my influences, Gees Bend and BORO, and explain some of the different techniques. I show quilts, patchworked items and lots of samples. I was recently featured in ‘Today’s Quilter’ magazine and there’s an interview I gave earlier this year about patchworking on my website http://christinegreencrafts.co.uk
A Life in Stitches: A look at the many and varied stitchy projects I have created from a needlepoint tea cosy for a BBC drama, stitching buttons onto Pudsey bear, discovering Gees Bend quilts and their influence on my quilts, exploring BORO, creating velvet cushions for ‘The Antique Roadshow’ and lots of crossover points between my tv graphics work and sewing.

The Trouble with Trivia – We all love quizzes, don’t we? The trouble is when you actually appear before cameras the brain often doesn’t function as sharply as you would like. This is the story of my twenty-five years of trials, tribulations and amusing tales of rivalries attempting to recall a million useless facts chasing after glory and cash on ‘The Weakest Link’, ‘Mastermind’, ‘Brain of Britain’, ‘The Chase’, 15-1′, ‘Two Tribes’, ‘Lucky Numbers’ and ‘Sudden Death’.

The changes and Dramas of 30 years working in the Travel industry
This year I have celebrated working in the travel industry for 33 years.
During this time I have seen a great deal of changes & dramas! – including of course last year with the effects of COVID19 on my beloved customers’ holidays.
Over the years, I have travelled a great deal, this talk will whisk you off to some of these far-away places, whilst I will also discuss how things have changed for travel-agents working on the high street, and my experiences which have spun over 3 decades.
My talk has been received extremely well with other WI Groups, so I do hope that you will enjoy listening to what I have to say!”
