This exercise was to create structures from strips of paper, card and other materials.
two sheets of painted card interwoven
cutting the paper weft into curves
magazine page woven with scrunched tissue paper
weaving strips of a plastic bag
I like the middle one because of the texture and the way the weft breaks up the image; and the bottom one, with the effects of transparency, and the fragments of words.

I’m loving following your work and this kind of sketchbook work/design always interests and inspires me. Thank you for sharing :o)
I am doing weaving with my class 3 children this half term, you have given me some great ideas, thanks!

I like the middle one too ……… lovely texture!
i like the curvy one and the red plastic one.the red one offers a lot of possibilities!!
I love the way this brings up surprising colour combinations which you can use later x
So simple, yet so effective excercises..thank you
Here in Sheffield we weave buildings! (See http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/jessop
Your paper weavings are great – I love the first one, how you can still see the design of the maroon paper, even after it has been mixed with the yellow. The wavey ones look good too!
The plastic bag one is a great re-use / recycle idea.
Thank you sharing and inspiring. I’m a retired math-teacher and try and like to create with my little grandchildren. At the moment they are still too young but in no time this will be a very cute project to make.
Wishing you the very best and sending you kind greetings from the EU (A).
