City and Guilds: Texture and Pattern

The third chapter: Texture and Pattern

So this is where it started getting interesting and I started to get to play around more. this also included a two day course with Kim Thittichai. I really enjoyed the course but needed to learn to relax more. I would love to do the course again and play around more, it turns out that soldering irons are quite fun.
