Summer School
NEEDLE FELTING - 31 JULY
Date: Thursday, 31st July
Tutor: Rebecca is a local mixed media artist with a passion for inspiring students with a desire to be creative. She worked as an Art teacher in both the UK and USA for 13 years and now teaches Art workshops.
Description: You will learn how to create a seascape or landscape using the unique art form of needle felting. You will learn about compositions and how to layer and blend the felt to create a tranquil scene.
You might choose to focus on just one final piece, or alternatively create a series to show, for example, a sunset or sunrise or perhaps something you have captured on holiday or in a special place. The image is just the starting point, as your piece will naturally develop and change as you work, so do not worry if you do not have a specific image to work from.
Level of course: Details to follow
Student requirements: Buttons, embroidery thread (optional), reference seascape image (optional). Please bring £18 payable directly to the tutor for materials. *Please be aware that the technique is fairly repetitive so may not be suitable for people with back/neck pain*
