Color and Texture!

We are honored to have guest presenter and teacher Charan Sachar to explore our theme of Color and Texture. Charan is an artist whose work reflects his passion for fiber arts, such as knitting, spinning, weaving, and quilting. He uses it as an inspiration for his clay work. In all the fields that he works in, he loves to accept challenges and approaches the making with a “what if” attitude. Charan specializes in creating art yarns with textures using traditional spinning techniques and pushing them an extra step to create unique yarns.
