Georgia uses her paintings and collages to base her luxury weave samples on. I feel interested by her work because of the way that she has captured moments of charcoal alike marks in yarn textures. I think that her working method is similar to my way of practise, because I like to base my woven work on the colours and mark qualities that are in my paintings.
Henry Moore
On a visit to Thailand, I collected coral that washed up on the beach. I concentrated on the ghost outline shape of coral so I drew the negative space around leaving the blank shape of the coral. Henry Moore's sculptures and drawings have very organic shapes that arc smoothly and allow the tone of shadows to add more extravagance to the shapes.

Rob Sawer
Rob Sawer builds up a surface to bed his abstract landscape paintings over. His landscapes are painted as though they are viewed from a satellite and focus on the light and sky, earth and ground but also time and memory. Earth is shaped by the weather but also the foot steps. I often find interest in the natural staircases in the land that have been created by cattle. I find natural things to be the sauce of patterns and texture and see the things as ever changing pieces of art because ineveitably these things will not stay the same forever. It would be interesting to Create a piece of cloth that I could constantly evolve over time.
I think that in many ways something I could weave could evolve in its intentions of use, which is another way of evalution. Rob Sawer has inspired me to work directly with texture and to process paintings/collages that usually I would leave alone.
Aline Nakagawa de Oliveira
Aline Nakagawa's work is based on DNA however I have a select interest based on the way she captures a pattern but It doesn't flow her patterns in a repetive way. Her yarn choices have a reflective glair from the depth of shadows of the darker toned yarns. I think that Aline Nakagawa's method could be a similar way of working to mine because I use the colour and tone changes in my paintings which I then relate to weave samples.
