A few of us went to see Jan Hagen today, she is a textile artist and colourist. Here are some examples of her beautiful work and we are lucky that she is going to do a needle felting workshop at Jeudi Art this Autumn and next Spring she will be doing a day’s workshop teaching painting on fabric. The dates are yet to be fixed.
