Needle-Felting is a form of soft sculpture that can be worked on a flat background, creating a relief sculpture. It can also be used as a painterly medium to create texture or representational work of art. In this class, Robin will demonstrate the basics, show the nuances of the medium, and also help with sculpting skills. It is a fun medium to work with and easily transportable to work on wherever you happen to be.Supplies will be provided for this class.
