Online Class | Advanced Methods in Handmade Felt: Amplified Forms

Presented by Mendocino Art Center at Online/Virtual Space

In this online class students will move beyond the concept of felt as a 2-dimensional presentation, and into the development of 3-D sculptural form.

We will spend time observing the movement of the textiles in water, as they float and undulate within our hands, and capture the movement in our finished sculptures.

The techniques include needle-felting dense wool into lightweight fabrics, working with jigs, wet felting, refined surface finishing, sculpting, and mounting.

Students are supplied with all of the required materials, tutorials, and online video demonstrations to successfully learn the new techniques.

Seize this rare interactive opportunity to work with internationally renowned felt artist Kristy Kún.
