Wet Felting

Merino wool, silk, on silk Georgette and muslin cotton base layers.
Stretched and framed in oak veneer wood tray.

Size: W 34cm x H 35cm x D 4cm

Framing: Stretched and framed in an Oak veneer wood tray.

The Story: Casting out the fishing rod into the river amongst reeds and vegetation, in this small semi-abstract composition.

The work is stretched over a frame and sits in a wooden tray allowing the viewer to directly connect with the marks and textures in the artwork.

Composition: Merino wool, silk on silk Georgette and cotton muslin base layers.

Process: The traditional wet felting technique uses water, soapsuds and agitation to interlock loose fibers to form a stable and strong structure. I work in fine layers and trap textile elements between the layers to create textures and light effects.

Care Instructions: As with all fine art I recommend not to place the artwork in direct sunlight, extremes of temperature or high humidity. As the artwork is not protected by glass, it can be lightly brushed with a soft paintbrush to remove the dust, taking great care not to disturb the surface.
