Create an adorable felted wool rabbit using a felting needle and dyed wool! Mounted on a wood slice, your completed rabbit sculpture will be ready for gifting, or as a decoration just for you!

Learn about proper felting needle handling and use, wool types, felting techniques and more. No experience is necessary. 

All materials will be provided, but do bring reading glasses if you need them as we will be working with a sharp instrument.   Ages 14 and up.

 

Wendy Anctil, Portsmouth Arts Guild

Wendy has been exploring fiber arts since May of 2019, and teaching the art of wool felting since early 2020. She creates beautifully textured paintings and sculptures using both wet and dry felting techniques.  Her felted wool landscapes, birds, and wool sculptures have been featured at HeARTspot Art Center and Gallery in her home town of East Providence.

  

Wendy won the People’s Choice Award at the Bristol Art Museum’s “Cold Snap” gallery show in November 2019. She received second place in the Portsmouth Arts Guild’s “Imagine Fabric” show in August 2020 for her art piece, “Pink Sky”. Her art has also been juried and displayed at the Wickford Art Association Gallery.
