Sheep Gourd
Class Description: Everyone loves a wooly sheep (especially at Heritage Weavers and Fiber Artists)!!!
In this class you will learn how to create a garden on a gourd featuring a realistic natural fiber, loopy sheep grazing in the foreground. We will cut, drill and prepare your gourd for creating your textural sheep. Once you “loop” your sheep you will paint your field for him to graze in, adding flowers and trees to your artwork. You don’t have to be an artist to create art!
