Instructor: | Lyn Slade |
Join me for this half day workshop to needle felt an 7" x 91/2" work of art (matted to 11" x 14") an autumn scene with sheep. When I "paint with wool" it's all about layering the colors and opening the roving up thin to allow lower layers to show through. It can look quite like a watercolor painting. Even though we will all be working the same basic design, each person's will be unique. It's part of the fun of creating art! Do not fear that "you aren't an artist" or you aren't experienced with needle felting, the basics are simple and I will lead you through step by step. You will leave with a completed and matted work of art. How cool is that?
Prerequisites: Beginner and all levels welcome.
