Felt Art


This is Maddie's felted rendition of one of my favorite works of art. Marcel Duchamp's "Nude Descending a Staircase" it called Nuno Felting which means the bits of colored wool are needled on to a sheet of silk. Scarves are often made this way.












This is the one she made for Puck. It is Monet's "Water Lilly's"

    I forgot to mention that she made them for her final in "Intro to fibers" thereby getting a "two for one" shot... oh she did get an A in the class too.
