Workshop format:
- The workshop will begin with everyone creating a series of small watercolour swatches, using the colours taken from the image. Felting is often described as “painting with wool,” so this first step gives you a chance to explore the palette before translating it into fibre.
- After the watercolour stage, we’ll also make a few small wool samples so you can experiment with blending and layering the fibres before starting the main piece.
- We’ll then move on to creating a needle‑felted landscape featuring three sheep. You’re welcome to work from your own reference image, or you can adapt the example image I provide—it’s simply there as a starting point for inspiration.
Tutor will provide:
- All wool for the 2D spring landscape scene
- All equipment needed to create it
Materials charge on the day is £5 for a 18x18cm shadow frame (optional)
Participants to bring:
- A landscape photo (optional)
Please bring your own lunch but HACG will provide tea/coffee/milk.
Time and location: 27 May - 09:30am to 3:30pm at The Pavillion, Henley YMCA
