felting fun

For the past few weeks, I have held a felting class in the evenings. The girls have learned the techniques of wet and needle felting. It's been a lot of fun and they have done an excellent job with their projects. These pieces were created by Sarah K., LaQuantis N., and Bianca L. (in order from top to bottom).

The girls started out by wet felting a multi- colored piece to act as a foundation for their designs. Using a combination of wet and needle felting, they were able to create wonderful works of art!

I will post more pictures of the class and their work as they finish their projects!

little hands have great potential

I knew coming into this job that children are full of artistic potential, but I am continuously impressed with the work these kids create! Everyday dozens of club members filter in and out of the art room, each one with his or her own artistic style...and the potential to create great things.

This little blog is just a way of showing off what their many little hands create!
