It helps you develop technical skills in sophisticated 3D felting, and you can apply this technique to create your own individual sculptural 3D works of art.
On a personal level, this class will help you connect with your own dreams and wishes. Sometimes this can be challenging, especially when it involves taking risks or making the next step. It is valuable to have a small reminder close to you at all times.
Materials you will need:
