This single session project will guide you step-by-step to develop a breathtaking sunset scene over the subtle beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains. With over 15 different fibers in your roving kit, you will be guided through special techniques to capture the shades that define the mystery of this unique landscape. You can complete the project in class or continue at home. Each student receives a kit with a range of dyed wool roving in the project palette, felting needles, acrylic felt pinned to your own foam block worksurface plus handouts outlining steps and inspiration images. All materials are provided with the materials fee, due in class. These materials are yours to take home to pursue more studio projects. Beginners are welcome in this workshop. You will be introduced to each fiber and technique, and every piece is unique to the maker, regardless of guidance or experience.
