Colour in Neutral
Now that I'm moving forward after my trip to visit family in Toronto, I am back in my studio and exploring new ideas and new ways to felt/
I love colour and I use it a lot in my art practice. I understand that some people like neutral, but I'm just not one of them. I am, though, learning to do colour in neutral and this piece is my interpretation of just that.

Vessels Workshop June 7/8
What a lovely weekend of fiber and felting. We had alot to do in two days. Two of the participants were beginner felters, so not only did they have to get the technique down, they also had to work with all the design elements. There were lots of new techniques and lots of inspiration flowing through out the group.Nesteled in my garage...i spent days cleaning it up, it was the perfect place to let the water flow on the floor and to include dyeing as a part of the workshop.
If you are interested in participating in the next workshop, contact me at coloursparks@gmail.com

Felt: :Feutre - Contemporary Canadian Felt
I am off to felt: :feutre tomorrow on Salt Spring Island, BC. There are workshops, exhibitions and a fashion show all celebrating contemporary Canadian Feltmaking.
I look forward to 5 days of felt making, advancing my techniques and working together with fellow felting enthusiasts.
When I come back I will be teaching felting classes at the Art of Yarn and ready to share some of the new things that I have learned.

How can it get any better than that?
