About Mandy:

Mandy has been felting with wool for 20 years. She began with "Bossy's Feltworks", a woman-owned island partnership that began in 2006. "Bossy's" features 3-dimensional figurines, toys and mobiles and was a staple at the Orcas Farmer's Market for 15 years, and continues presently with items at Lum Farm. More recently, Mandy paints with wool using wet and dry felting methods. Her work can be found at Orcas Island Artworks and Lum Farm.

Mandy's teaching style is encouraging and inclusive, with the goal of creating community through creating art together.
