Dates: Mon Feb 2nd , Tues Feb 3rd, Wed Feb 4th
Where: Private Facebook Group
Cost: Free
✅ 3 pre-recorded lessons

This isn’t a typical needle felting class.
Most felting tutorials teach technique.
Paint With Wool teaches the painter’s mindset:
how to use color, value, light, layering, and texture to create artwork that looks dimensional, expressive, and alive.
If you love painting… but you want to create with fiber, you’re in the right place.
What You’ll Learn in 3 Days
Day 1 — Seeing Like a Painter
Shift from “craft” to fine art thinking.
✅Shapes & values (not outlines)
✅Layering wool like brushstrokes
✅A “Wool Paint Strip Sampler” exercise
Day 2 — Color, Mood & Atmosphere
✅Paint light with wool.
✅Warm vs cool color
✅Blending fibers like pigment
✅A painterly sky study
Day 3 — Composition & Texture
Build a finished wool painting.
✅Foreground / middle / background depth
✅Texture as visual interest
✅Create a mini wool landscape artwork
You’ll Get These Printable Tools (Free)
Inside the workshop you’ll receive printable pages like:
Reference Photo
Template for painting
Color mixing chart in wool
Value scales in wool
Final project planner + reflection pages
This workbook turns wool into a real painting medium.
