Sharing my skills with others is something I enjoy greatly, particularly working with beginners. So, if you would like to try out either feltmaking or lino printmaking I am happy to discuss organising something to suit your needs. Below are a few suggestions of things I could offer:
-
Introduction to Feltmaking: a one day workshop to introduce the basic techniques and produce some finished items such as a small wall hanging, a purse or mobile phone cover, flowers to be made into brooches.
-
Birthday Parties: an afternoon or morning to create one or two of the above. Minimum age six years.
-
Introduction to Lino Prints: a one day workshop to introduce the basic techniques and produce some finished items such as a small picture or cards and gift tags.
Other, specialist techniques such as nuno and cobweb felt considered by arrangement – just get in touch and we can discuss your requirements.
I am also happy to run sessions for youth groups and schools or to give talks and demonstrations for other groups. I am DBS checked for both adults and children. I live in Buckinghamshire and am willing to travel reasonable distances.
