I learned how to create yarn paintings after being given a gift that was made by a Wixàrika artist. The Wixàrika people of Mexico create brightly colored images utilizing a unique method. The artist puts yarn onto a wood panel and it is held in place by beeswax. The subject matter of a Wixàrika yarn painting involves images that relate to the Wixàrika peoples’ religion. I found the look and texture of the yarn on the wood surface enthralling, and so I started to make my own yarn paintings with my own subject matter. And instead of getting the yarn to stick to the wood with beeswax, I use ordinary white glue that is available even at the super market. I’ve learned a few useful techniques that help in the making of yarn painting and I’ll show everybody what I know at my demonstration!
