"Working with Color for Artistic Craft"
Barbara Arlen

Thursday, May 13, 2010, 8:00 pm
Syosset Public Library

Knowing what colors to use and how to use them is an important aspect of any creative work. This colorful presentation will aid the artist-craftsperson in using color to its full advantage.

Among the subjects stressed will be color cycles, color symbolism, color and geography, color in crafted products and color as a cultural experience. There will also be a discussion of the color principles of Bauhaus artists Albers, Itten and Klee.

Our presenter, Barbara Arlen, is the owner of Barbara Arlen Design & Associates, textile and product design. She is also a sourcing consultant and teacher of Color Forecasting and Color Mixing Studio at the Fashion Institute of Technology's School of Continuing Education.

Join us, and bring a friend, for another great evening of listening, sharing and enjoying the company of people who share your compassion for crafts.
