LINE IN TAPESTRY

with KENNITA TULLY

 

October 19 - 20, 2024  

While it may be fundamental to creating art, weaving lines in tapestry, particularly vertical lines, can be a challenge to pull off successfully.  Kennita Tully is a master at weaving and creating lines using various forms of Soumak and will share those techniques in this workshop. Students should have a basic knowledge of tapestry and arrive with a warped loom, ready to weave. 

 

Kennita is a tapestry artist, author, and teacher living in Pottawatomie County, KS. She has been weaving full-time since 2017, after a 30 year career as a knitwear designer.

 

Kennita has a BFA in textiles and photography from Murray State University in Murray, KY and an MA from University of Michigan in AnnArbor , Michigan. Her work has been published in numerous magazines and she teaches workshops nationally and internationally on a regular basis as well as online classes through her website. She recently began to exhibit her tapestries in the fall of 2019.

 

Kennita is a current board member of American Tapestry Alliance, and member of Surface Design Association, Handweavers Guild of America, British Tapestry Group, and Fiber Art Network.
