Wool Pictures weekend retreat
October 18th and 19th
10am-4.30pm each day
Join us for a two-day creative retreat dedicated to the art of feltmaking. This workshop offers a welcoming space to immerse yourself in wool, colour, and texture while developing your own unique artistic voice.
Each day begins at 10am in the beautifully customised Heartfelt Studio. With over 30 years of experience in feltmaking, I will guide you through a variety of inspiring techniques while supporting your individual creative journey.
On the first day, you’ll enjoy a hands-on demonstration of useful methods for creating pictorial felts, before exploring how to bring your own ideas to life. You’ll have access to a wide range of tools and approaches, with plenty of encouragement to experiment and discover what feels right for you.
Whether you choose to produce a series of small felt pictures or focus on one larger, detailed piece, this retreat is designed to balance guided tuition with the freedom to follow your own direction. Numbers are kept small to ensure plenty of personal attention and a relaxed, connected atmosphere.
This weekend is suitable both for complete beginners and for those with some experience in wool and feltmaking. By the end of the retreat, you’ll not only take home your creations but also new skills, techniques, and inspiration.
Places are limited – book now to secure your spot in this creative retreat!
