For many years the authors have been engaged in the pedagogical activity, working
in the fi eld of training artists — teachers; at the same time, they are involved in the
sphere of interior design, creating tapestries and other works of art for interiors. They
have gained a rich pedagogical and creative experience, confi rmed their status as
permanent participants of numerous professional art exhibitions at different levels.
Unlike other art courses, composition does not have a clearly developed methodology,
especially in arts and crafts. What matters in this form of art is material: a rich palette
of yarn colors, velvety, which contributes to creation of effective textures and soft tran-
sitions. In the hands of a beginner all this can lead to overshadowing a graphic and
compositional part, and can result into individual errors, i.e. haste in transformation
of the sketch into the material, ignorance of the existing rules of composition while
rendering proportional relationships of individual parts and masses, or violation of
the equilibrium principles, etc. Any compositional fl aws committed in cardboard, in
the fi nished work become obvious, but they can no longer be corrected due to the
technological features of the material. Therefore, the authors consider composition
as the tapestry specifi city and try to draw attention of young artists to this problem.
Keywords: composition, creative work, arts and crafts, artist, sketch, color spot,
equilibrium, tapestry.
