1R/M Felting - J.C.S.P Art Initiative
Felting is the process of producing a textile or fabric by combining and compressing the loose fibers, wool or hair.
And 1R/1M are having great fun re-creating the famous works of Vincent Van Gogh and others in A7.
This sensory form of art making is great for the confidence levels of students who can be more reluctant drawing and sketching.
Felting is allowing the group to to explore these famous artworks and connect with the flow of colours and shapes and energy of the masters.
They have all reported how calming this activity can be and felting is definitely a form of 'mindful' art.
If you think you might enjoy felting check out courses from The Muddle in Bray and the wide range of other arts and crafts courses they offer.
