This is the first time that we have tried this as a workshop/demonstration. It seemed to be very popular and we had great fun doing it.

Sarah Allsop
“The event was full of magic (not myself because I was hiding from dogs) I love the planet mobiles, the dragonfly sculptures, the nest and the printing press etc”
This is a photo of Sarah’s unfinished artwork started at the Art Trail in Perrywood. Unfortunately she was bothered by dogs on the day and retreated into the wood out of sight to continue her painting.

Helen Mayer ‘White Shed’ artist
Many of the trees in Perry Wood that have been coppiced in the past and regrown in a ring have a nest-like structure of leaves or moss within them. The winding and weaving of wool explores and accentuates these spaces and repeats the idea of nesting and protection.
