Anita Larkin Workshop


Anita Larkin       Stacking Resists workshop
A workshop hosted by The Illawarra Feltmakers 
Date: 9th and 10th March 2013
9:30am to 4pm 
Shellcove Community Centre, Shellharbour

Stacking resists beside, as well as on top of each other, allows the felter a multitude of
possibilities for making innovative forms in 3 dimensions. Using resists in this way enables
intricate, complicated, and unusual shapes within your felting projects. This class will begin
with 2 small experiments on day 1, felting resists together in various ways to produce
shapes such as segmented seedpods, multi-chambered vessels and imaginary animals.
Students will then have the opportunity to further explore and develop their own projects
using these two methods on the second day. This can be a small wearable, sculptural
vessel, or sculpture. You will be amazed at the possibilities when stacking resists.

Members $200 /non members $250
