Open to all skill levels this 2-Day Workshop will introduce techniques for creating 2-D and 3-D artwork using wool and encaustic. We will cut, fold, wrinkle, pierce and weave with wool. Both new and repurposed woven, knitted and unspun wool will be available for use. Alternative hanging solutions for sculptural wall hung work will be provided.

Day 1: Short demos will be followed by hands on manipulation of materials by participants. Sample boards are encouraged. An assortment of wool options will be provided. (thick, thin, woven, knitted & un-spun )

Day 2: Begin work on a finished project or continue to experiment & create sample boards. Receive individual feedback if desired.

•There will be plenty of materials to work with!
