This workshop will introduce you to the fascinating technique of creating art using colorful wool fibers, layered to form intricate designs, all within the charming setting of decoupaged frames. The workshop promises to be a delightful experience for attendees, combining creativity with relaxation and fostering a sense of accomplishment. The theme is Peonies of Spring and the instructors will specifically teach techniques to depict the intricate beauty of peony flowers.

This workshop can accommodate up to 10 participants. The fee includes all necessary materials and guidance from experienced instructors. Participants will leave the workshop with their own unique wool painting framed with decoupage, ready to display or gift!

Wool painting, also known as "wool watercolor," is a method of creating artwork without traditional brushes, paints, or pencils. Instead, participants will learn to layer colored sheep's wool gradually, forming images with different hues and textures. What makes wool painting particularly appealing is its forgiving nature; mistakes can be easily corrected by removing misplaced fibers and reapplying them, allowing for endless experimentation and artistic exploration.

This workshop will take place in the NCHM Exhibit Room surrounded by Ann Flemings art exhibition, Threads of Her Story. Learn more about this exhibition here. Workshop tickets include admission to the Museum and access to all the exhibitions on display.
