In this workshop students will learn to use felting needles to shape wool fibers into free-standing, solid felt sculpture. Topics include basic form-building, fine detailing, adding color, incorporating mixed media, and working with armatures. Class time will include slideshows, daily demonstrations, and one-on-one instruction and feedback with lots of hands-on work time. All of the crucial tools and materials needed to complete a small project will be supplied with materials fee (see below), however students who already own needle felting tools and supplies are welcome to bring them. Bring along a spirit of experimentation and play; needle felting is incredibly forgiving and changeable. Please note that needle felting involves repetitive, physical hand and arm exercise. All levels welcome.
