ASHDOWN FOREST AUTUMN LANDSCAPES

An intermediate needle felted landscape class with Cecily Kate

115 British pounds

Service Description

ASHDOWN FOREST AUTUMN LANDSCAPE with Cecily Kate At The Oast Studio, Hartfield, East Sussex On this workshop you'll build on your first landscape and take your felting further, "painting" with wool to create your own needle felted view of Ashdown Forest in autumn. It's a wonderfully therapeutic process, and with over 30 gorgeous shades of fibre to work with, you'll have everything you need to capture the season's misty distances, russet bracken and soft golden light. Working from images for inspiration, you'll give real attention this time to distance, foreground and texture. "Painting" with wool is a magical process: fibres can be added and removed easily without damaging your landscape, and the soft, cloudy quality of the wool creates a diffused image, reminiscent of an impressionist painting. THE DETAILS: Duration: 4 hours Suitable for: Anyone who has previously attended a landscape class with Cecily Kate Class size: 7 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: How to create a real sense of distance, using colour and tone to push the far hills back and bring the foreground forward How to choose from over 30 shades of fibre to capture the colours of Ashdown Forest in autumn How to build depth, perspective, light and shadow as you gradually needle felt your layers down How to add texture and detail in the foreground, from bracken and grasses to trees, to bring your scene to life You'll be guided every step of the way, and we'll frame your finished piece so you can take it straight home to hang on your wall or give to someone special WHAT'S INCLUDED: Merino wool in over 30 shades All other materials needed A wooden picture frame with glass Plentiful refreshments and home baked treats WHAT TO BRING: Just yourself - everything is provided (bring reading glasses if you use them for close work) WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY: "I attended your wonderful Felted Summer Sunset class a couple of weeks ago and it was an absolute joy! I'm so proud of my beautiful creation and can't thank Cecily Kate enough for sharing her talent and expertise with us.
