Self-Expression Through Wool
With Carmen Ditzler
Using a combination of wet felting, needle felting and stitch you will play with wool to make a flat piece that can be hung on the wall, be a placemat, hot pot mat, cut into coasters… the possibilities are endless. The focus of the class will be on creating layers of interest rather than a hyper realistic “painting”.
Dates: February 19th and 26, 2025, 1-4 pm
Where: 121 Northwest Blvd., Creston, ArtSpace which is on the lower level of the Visitor’s Centre
Cost: ArtSpace members $80 plus $20 for the kit
Non-members: $90 plus $20 for the kit
Class Size: Maximum 10
