Sculptural Basketry with Sarita Westrup

Explore three dimensional fiber forms with Sarita Westrup! We'll be diving into the materials, techniques, approaches, and tools she uses to twine her arched baskets. We'll cover prepping reed for spokes and weavers, starting an open bottom basket, backwards twining, and finishing the lip of the basket. Other materials/media for twining and surface will be discussed. The workshop will focus on demonstrations and time outside of class may be needed to finish your basket.
