Felting is a wonderful medium to explore painting but with coloured wool roving instead of paint. Choose from a vast array of colours to 'paint' your landscape with. This practice slows you down and allows you to focus on colour, form and texture like no other art. This is a perfect course for painters as well because of the skills needed to interpret colour and form.

Work on a 12x16 inch landscape of your choosing. All materials are included

Suitable for beginners, you will go home with the tools to continue your exploration of felting.

YOUR TUTOR

Megan Cleland is a self taught artist specializing in felted portraits, using wool and other animal fibres to create lifelike textured works. She began exploring felting ten years ago, drawn to the natural colours and richness of the medium. In 2023, Megan showcased her work at The Royal Winter Fair in Toronto, which led to gallery representation and increased public interest in her unique approach to fibre art.
