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' 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.In this class Megan will guide you through a detailed likeness of a red fox.
All materials are included
Suitable for beginners, you will go home with the tools to continue your exploration of felting.
