Wet felting involves the process of using water, soap and agitation to interlock the fibres of wool fibres together in order to form a textile or fabric. Wet felting art is often referred to as "painting with wool', as the effect of laying down fibres to design a scene looks much like what is achieved when using paint.
In this full-day class, participants will learn about the background and process of felting and apply these learnings to create their own, unique piece of art (approximately 14" x 16"). With a beautiful array of colours, there is no limit to the ideas that can be translated into a lovely picture!
I always attempt to make this day fun, educational and as indulgent a possible! My guests are greeted with coffee and/or tea, baked goodies and fruit. Then, at lunch, everyone is treated to a full and tasty lunch. All supplies are provided.
Class participants will go home with a completed piece of art, along with a foam pad, needle and extra wool so that they can embellish their works when dry.
Note: If you register for one of my classes, you will receive details about the workshop one week prior to our gathering. Students are asked to each choose a photo they want to use as inspiration for their piece.
