THE MIGHTY OIL PASTEL

The strips do not need to be even. Variation in thickness actually makes the final weaving more interesting. 

Using a black oil pastel, outline the edges of each strip. 

warp

  • Choose one color group and begin laying the strips vertically on the black background.

  •  Adjust spacing using an extra strip horizontally as a guide

  • Once happy with the composition, glue only the bottom ends of the vertical strips


weft

  • Take your second color group and arrange the strips horizontally in the color order you like. 

  • start at the bottom

  • Weave over, under, over, under through the vertical strips

  • For the next strip, start the opposite way (under, over)

  • Continue alternating as you move up the page




weaving

  • Carefully glue down the ends of all strips - you can leave the middle glue free!

  • Press gently and allow time to dry
