I recently had a tapestry workshop with Maximo Laura in Peru. Just after we left he went to Montreal, Quebec for a workshop. I would really like to see if he could also be brought here to B.C. for a workshop. He is so inspiring and the use of colors and colour blendign was so effective and emminated so much warmth and texture. It was so exhilarating to have been part of his class. I would like more exposure to his techniques. Please consider him for your next symposium. Unni Lorenz from Trollheimen Weaving Studio, 70 Mile House, B.C.
