Woolen Watercolors - Painting with Wool
|
INSTRUCTOR: Tammy Jordan
SKILL LEVEL: Beginner, No Experience Required PREREQUISITE: MATERIALS: $25 STUDENTS TO BRING: Come prepared to have fun and create something beautiful! DESCRIPTION: Come create your very own masterpiece while learning to paint with wool. We’ll start with needle-felting your design, building color and textures, and then we’ll finish it off with a steam wet-felt before matting and framing your work. I’ll provide everything you need, including colored fiber, felting needles, foam mats, picture mat and frame, and you bring your love of color and a willingness to learn and create! No prior painting or needle-felting experience needed. Suitable for children ages 8 and older with parental supervision. INSTRUCTOR BIO: Tammy is a fourth-generation fiber artist who enjoys sharing her passion with everyone she meets. Her love of sheep, wool, writing, and inspiring others to learn led her on the path of running her own business, Goldieknots Montana, which specializes in Montana-grown wool, locally processed yarn, spinning fiber, and Made in Montana handmade gift items. Her business also does educational programming in fiber arts, ranging from fiber preparation to completed projects which she lovingly refers to as “Fleece to Fashion.” She participated in the Montana Arts Council’s MAP Program in 2016 and has taught fiber-related classes throughout the United States. She is a current board member and newsletter editor of the Montana Association of Weavers and Spinners, current member and past Secretary and Co-Chair of the Prairie Handspinners Guild in Billings, Montana, a member and Secretary of the Lincoln Council for the Arts, and founder of the Lincoln Fiber Circle in her home town of Lincoln, Montana. Her teaching style is fun, creative, and interactive, and when she’s not in her studio creating or on the road teaching, you can find her writing articles for her local newspaper and spending time with her dogs, sheep, horse, and other barnyard critters.
