Needle-felted Wool Sculptures of Airedales, Animals Etc.

 

The spontaneous and the unexpected is the essence of my desire to sculpt in wool using the fiber arts technique of needle felting. My needle feltings have hundreds of owners nationally and internationally. I simply enjoy "bringing wool to life" and releasing the results "to the wind" for the pleasure of all those who find joy in the 'touch' of the needle felted wool. Fiber arts are appealing both to artists and collectors who find this tactile pleasure irresistible.

Flocks of sheep have a way of growing! Spring lambing is just around the corner...do you know shepherds who care for their flocks? Surprise them with some additions of your own! A wonderful gift as a tribute for all their hard work.

These photos  were taken the morning after a fresh new snow at the Still River Mill in Eastford, CT where David and I spent a weekend in late January learning more about processing wool  and exotic fibers (yak, qiviut, angora, bison ...etc).   Deirdre Bushnell and Greg Driscoll have been plying their talents here at the mill as proficiently as they ply their yarn. They are experts in processing fiber.

Nestled in the rolling hills of rural northeastern Connecticut, they nurture their three sons and raise a few animals on the same property as the mill. With the rising sun, you can see the llamas and goats are curious about the strangers from Vermont (or maybe just hungry!) as Greg helps us with our luggage. The mill offers a variety of services and products related to natural fibers. Go to http://www.stillrivermill.com/ and check them out and pay them a visit when you are in the area! :-)
