History of hand felting

Felting wool (felting: from the English felt - felt, felting, felting, stuffing) is a special needlework technique, during which felting wool is used to create a pattern on fabric or felt, three-dimensional toys, panels, decorative elements, items of clothing or accessories . Only natural wool has the ability to mat or felt (form felt).

Humans discovered wool's ability to shed about 8,000 years ago. For felting, the found remains of animal hair were used. After the domestication of small cattle, it became possible to use sheared animal hair.

In the 16th century, the first workshops for making felt appeared.

In the 19th century, fulling presses and fulling machines were invented. Felling occurred by squeezing and rolling wool or by the mechanical action of special needles that tangled the wool fibers.

Today, special needle-punching machines have been created for home felting.

Types of felting

There are two types of wool felting - dry and wet. In dry felting, the wool is repeatedly pierced with a special needle until it feels felted. During this process, the fibers adhere to each other, forming a dense and homogeneous material. Wet felting is carried out using a soap or special solution. First, a wool product is laid out, moistened with a solution, and the felting process is carried out using friction. Dry felting is used to create three-dimensional products - toys, jewelry, figurines, designer dolls, as well as applying drawings and patterns to felt, felt and pre-felt crafts. Wet felting is suitable for making panels, clothing, linens, in a word, flat products.

Materials and equipment for felting

Needles for dry felting

Different consumables are used for dry and wet felting. Dry felting requires special serrated needles. When such a needle is inserted into wool, pieces of fibers catch on the notches and become tangled with each other.

There are special solutions for wet felting, but most craftsmen make do with regular or liquid soap.

Consumables - merino wool, so-called combed tape. This is the main type of wool used for felting. Merino wool varies in thickness and softness.

Sliver, padding polyester, cotton wool, and other wool for stuffing can also be used to make wool products. To decorate the master's products, silk, organza, various decorative threads and fiber are used.

Dry painting

To make a painting, we need a drawing to reproduce, or at least a sketch. We select wool of appropriate colors.

Lay out the background on a piece of flannel of the size required for the painting.

Tearing thin, almost transparent strands of wool from the ribbon, we lay out a background from them. The strands should overlap each other - this results in a mixture of colors and smooth transitions from color to color.

Having laid out the background, we lay out the individual parts, pressing them down a little with a needle on a sponge, if necessary.

When the picture is ready, all the details of the picture are laid out, we cover it with glass and carefully turn it over, put it in a frame, cut off the protruding edges of the wool, and secure the back wall of the frame. To prevent the wool from being pulled out, we seal the joints of the frame and the back wall with a strip of paper.

We lay out the background with white wool, having previously attached the white fabric to the cardboard according to the size of the picture.


Brief information about the technique... Wool felting (felting: from the English felt felt, felting, felting, stuffing) is a special handicraft technique, in the process of which wool for felting is used to create a pattern on fabric or felt, voluminous toys, panels, decorative elements, objects clothes or accessories. English handicrafts There are two types of wool felting: dry and wet. When dry felting, the wool is repeatedly pierced with a special needle until it feels felted. With a needle. Wet felting is carried out using a soap or special solution. We took as a basis Alexandra Fedorova’s Master Class “Winter Night”


To make a painting you will need: a frame (it consists of fiberboard, glass, clamps); wool (combed ribbon) of different colors - 6 colors are enough for this work: white, blue, light blue, yellow, brown, dark green; scissors, tweezers (for laying out small parts of the foreground), non-woven or flannel - cardboard (as a backing).


Let's disassemble the frame. We put a backing on the cardboard - non-woven fabric. It is designed to “hold” wool fibers on itself. The work surface is ready!




Method - "pulling" - we pull wool fibers from a combed ribbon, which we hold in one hand, with the fingers of the other hand, forming thin strands.




“Plucking” - take the fold of the tape; with the fingers of the other hand we pinch the surface hairs of the tape with frequent quick movements.








Let's make the picture "warmer" by adding yellow wool to the snow.

Introduction


Felting wool- one of the most widespread types of folk art. Initially, wool felting was used only for sewing clothes, making shoes (felt boots are a prime example), and making interior items (blankets, bedspreads, etc.). Over time, this type of needlework gradually acquired an additional use - decorative.

Painting with wool- this is a special way of creating a painting without the use of brushes, paints, pencils or threads, using the method of layer-by-layer laying out colored sheep wool. The tools used to create paintings, regardless of the level of civilization, were human hands and water.

Object of study: painting with wool as a genre of decorative and applied art.

Subject of study: wool painting algorithm.

Painting with wool- this is a special way of creating a painting without the use of brushes, paints, pencils or threads, using the method of layer-by-layer laying out colored sheep wool.

  • Animalistics - the main characters are animals;
  • Still life is devoted to the depiction of inanimate objects;
  • Fairy-tale-mythological - characters of epics, myths, fairy tales;
  • Portrait is an image of a person or group of people;
  • Landscape The main subject of the image is nature;

In my work I chose the landscape genre.

1. Historical information

Wool painting as an artistic movement appeared at the dawn of the 20th century in Germany; its founder was the German philosopher Rudolf Steiner, who chose wool as the most common and cheapest material in the provincial areas.

Knowing the ability of wool to mat, he found a way to use dyed wool as a material for painting. While observing children who regularly used wool as paint, he noticed that the children relaxed psychologically, became more balanced, and their personality acquired a more holistic status.

For about 100 years all over the world, “communication” with colored sheep’s wool has helped people cope with mental tension, stress, gain balance, open up creatively and feel the flight of inspiration while painting with wool, because this process is so creatively dynamic!

A person who paints a picture with wool is not limited to any given framework; he always uses the color scheme that corresponds to the needs of his soul, the plot that is closest to his state at the moment.

Felting wool is a special needlework technique in which a pattern is created from felting wool on fabric or felt. Only natural wool has the ability to mat.

Dry felting- one of the varieties of this type of needlework, such as wool felting. Only in comparison with wet felting, there is no need to use a soap solution.

The craft is formed using special barbed needles, or the wool is simply laid out by hand, as required by the composition. Woolen paintings are in no way inferior in picturesqueness to ordinary painted ones.

Using wool to add volume and airiness to a painting is much easier, and much less time is spent on its creation. " Write"The picture follows from the background. Tear off thin, almost transparent strands of wool from the ribbon and place them on the background.

The strands should overlap each other - this results in a mixture of colors and smooth transitions from color to color. The wool is dyed in bright colors, which makes for beautiful paintings.

2. Selection of materials and devices

  • clamp frame (it consists of hardboard (fibreboard), glass, clamps);
  • wool (combed tape) of different colors,
  • scissors,
  • tweezers (for laying out small foreground details),
  • non-woven or flannel as a backing,
  • frame with glass.

3.Technology for making the painting

3.1. Select a drawing, photograph or sketch.

I love Crimea very much, so as a sample for creating my work, I chose a picture by Gabriel Pavlovich Kondratenko. " Seascape. Crimean coast»

3.2. Laying out the background of the picture.

Let's disassemble the frame. We put the clamps aside (they will be needed at the very end of the work. We put a backing on the hardboard (fibreboard). It is designed to “hold” the wool fibers on itself.

Apply blue wool to the prepared surface, uniformly filling the entire area in any direction. At the same time, we pull the fibers from the wool tape in the form of wide thin strands

3.3. Laying out the foreground.

Having laid out the working surface with a layer of blue wool, we begin to form the background of the picture. At the same time, we use another method of working with wool - “pinching”

3.4. Laying out " rude» sketch.

« Let's draw» background: sea, mountains, stones. Using white wool, we highlight the middle of the picture, creating something like a haze.


3.5. Laying out small parts.

Using the pulling method, we form strands from which we stack stones and cypresses. We use brown and green wool.

3.6. Working on small details.

We combine pink, yellow, dark green, blue and brown wool into one thick strand, then cut this strand onto the picture, forming bushes.

3.7. Framed design.

Cover the finished picture with glass (be sure to wash the glass before doing this). We clamp the glass and hardboard with the woolen picture between them with clamps, and trim off the excess wool protruding along the edges.

The finished painting can be framed into a baguette.

Conclusion


The process of working with wool has a psychological and physiological effect: the nervous system calms down and mood improves. Personal qualities are developed: concentration, patience, accuracy.

As my ability to lay out paintings out of wool grew, I noticed an improvement in hand motor skills and greater coordination of movements. When making each subsequent painting, I pay attention to a number of positive aspects that characterize the process.

Painting with wool opened up my design skills. If desired, the paintings can be integrated into the interior of the rooms in such a way that the decor of the room will sparkle with new colors, surprising the guests.

Closing remarks from the leader

In the process of mastering wool painting, children develop a unique set of values: the ability to contemplate the beauty of nature, the ability to analyze a situation and make decisions independently, the ability to learn, the ability to plan their activities, attentiveness, accuracy, and observation.

Subsequently, they are expressed in actions. This progressive aesthetic development allows us to characterize students as “ well-mannered children”, that is, thinking and feeling, acting in accordance with the laws of society and nature.

Introduction

Felting wool is one of the most common types of folk art. Initially, wool felting was used only for sewing clothes, making shoes (felt boots are a prime example), and making interior items (blankets, bedspreads, etc.). Over time, this type of needlework gradually acquired an additional use - decorative.

Wool painting is a special way of creating a painting without the use of brushes, paints, pencils or threads, by laying out colored sheep's wool in layers. The tools used to create paintings, regardless of the level of civilization, were human hands and water. As the role of art in human life developed, a new direction in creating paintings appeared - without the use of water. The theme of paintings made of wool has always been closely connected with nature, life and human labor. Since ancient times, paintings made of wool have always been present in home decoration and are used to decorate clothing and household items. Centuries-old history not only did not age, did not make wool products a “relic of the past”, but, on the contrary, gave them value, significance and relevance at all times.

The history of wool felting dates back to ancient times, when primitive people domesticated small cattle.

We live in a dynamic and progressive world. But even in such a flow of new information, there is inconsistency in some knowledge and ideas.

The proverb says: “Without the past there is no future.” In search of integrity, in an effort to organize our knowledge, we turn our gaze to history and folk traditions. In my opinion, the ageless artistic thinking of our ancestors, reflected in the folk art of painting with wool, belongs to precisely these values.

To form aesthetic feelings and spiritual and moral qualities of the younger generation, it is necessary to study the fundamental principles of folk and ancient aesthetics.

The entire female half of our family is passionate about the art of laying out pictures from wool. Finished paintings are carefully stored in our house. Some time ago, my mother taught me this craft, and I enjoy doing this work. I really want wool paintings to find their place in our interior. Such things bring an atmosphere of comfort and peace to the house. In my opinion, paintings created with your own hands are an excellent gift for loved ones, since a piece of the soul of the giver is embedded in them.

Subject: A collection of paintings created using the “Wool Painting” technique, as a result of studying the genre of decorative and applied art.

Object of study : painting with wool as a genre of decorative and applied art

Subject of study: wool painting algorithm

Target: creating a collection of paintings made of wool

To achieve this goal, the following are solved:tasks:

    Study the history of the decorative and applied genre of wool paintings

    Establish basic wool painting techniques

    Create an algorithm for creating a painting from wool

    Create your own collection of wool paintings.

    To identify the influence of the process of creating paintings from wool on the formation of aesthetic taste and spiritual improvement of the author.

Hypothesis: If you identify the algorithm for creating a picture from wool, then the process of creating your own works will be more productive, which in turn will lead to the formation of aesthetic taste, spiritual improvement and creative activity of the author.

Chapter 1 Specifics of the fine genre of wool painting

1. 1. The history of painting with wool.

The history of painting with wool goes back centuries.

The history of wool felting is associated primarily with nomads who domesticated sheep. Natural wool has the ability to mat, i.e. form felt. No other material is capable of this. This is due to the fact that wool fibers have a scaly top layer. When exposed to hot water and steam, wool fiber flakes can adhere to each other. However, the wool of a wild sheep almost never falls, since it does not have a scaly layer.

Scientists say that wool felting is the most ancient technique for creating textiles. But how did a person guess that wool could be felted? The history of felting is also connected with the legend of the Great Flood. It tells how various animals, including sheep, were herded into Noah's ark. They had to be in small rooms, their fur fell directly onto the floor on which they walked. Pieces of wool continually fell under the hooves of the animals, and when the Flood came to an end and the sheep were released, the surface of the floor was covered with the first felted carpet.

Nomads were the first people to appreciate the unique properties of felt. They made houses, clothes (insoles, burkas and men's hats), interior items (carpets, runners, pillows), livestock equipment (saddle parts, horse blankets, large felt bags for transporting goods, etc.), and utensils ( bags for storing tea, small dishes and other small items), bedding for newborn calves.

People slept on felt, dressed in felt clothes, and covered their horses with felt blankets. Felt protected them from evil spirits and enemy arrows, and saved them from heat and cold. They even used felted wool in blacksmithing and medicine (in the treatment of broken bones), etc.

Gradually, craftsmen learned to decorate felt products with colored strands of wool, creating the first patterns. The main motifs of the patterns: rhombuses, triangles, jagged stripes, rhombic chains, figures in the form of ram's horns, s-shaped figures, etc. Patterns in the form of herbs, flowers, and landscapes gradually appeared. Traditionally, they were made from wool dyed with natural dyes. The resulting colors had to be in harmony with each other and be resistant to weathering and washing, so serious attention was paid to the process of dyeing wool. Natural dyes were plants that, in order to obtain a dye of the desired quality and color, were collected in a specific place at a certain time.

Using natural dyes, folk craftsmen achieved a varied palette. Thus, the green color was obtained from the leaves of walnut, mulberry and nettle; brown - from a decoction of nut shells, and gray - from mature beans; The pink color of the wool was given by wild poppy flowers and blue plum branches, and the yellow color was given by onion peels. Later, by sequential dyeing or mixing dyes, new color combinations were achieved.

Thus, it can be established that needlework, as a type of decorative and applied art, has been formed from the era of the primitive system to the present day.

Wool painting as an artistic movement appeared at the dawn of the twentieth century in Germany; its founder was the German philosopher Rudolf Steiner. At this time, new breeds of sheep were developed - merino. They are renowned for their finer, softer wool, which can produce more delicate colored strands. Rudolf Steiner guessed thatWith wool you can not only felt, but also draw, without resorting to felting needles or soapy water. Paintings made from wool turn out very airy, watercolor-like, each strand is like a brush stroke. It was from this time that craftsmen began to create not only decorated products used in household use, but also paintings in which delicate colored strands of wool act as watercolor strokes of the artist’s brush. Drawings made from wool are realistic due to the fact that even dyed wool does not have wild colors, like synthetic fibers, for example. You may ask how such a drawing will hold up; everything is very simple, the woolen picture is covered with glass, which is protected from the movement of the picture, dust, etc.

1. 2. Genres of painting with wool

Having originated in antiquity, the art of painting has been improved over many centuries. Wool painting is a fine art. It is very diverse and therefore divided into genres.

Animalist - a genre of fine art, the main characters are animals. In the ancient world, images of animals were symbolic. For example, the Sphinx is the personification of the unity of animal and human. Works of the animalistic genre call for protecting, loving and studying the animal world and nature.

Portrait - from French portrait, from portraire - to depict - an image of a person or group of people who really exist or existed. Typically, a portrait depicts a face contemporary to the artist and is created directly from life.

Scenery - from French paysage, from pays - country, locality - in fine arts, a genre or a separate work in which the main subject of the image is nature. The landscape genre arose in Europe relatively recently, although it appeared in Asian countries much earlier. The landscape is very rich in varieties: rural, urban, marina (Italian marina - sea)

Still life - from French nature morte - dead nature - a genre of fine art (mainly painting and graphics), which is devoted to the depiction of inanimate objects placed in a single environment and united in a group. A still life can consist of homogeneous objects (for example, only dishes) or combine dissimilar ones (flowers, dishes, fabrics, etc.). Still lifes can also depict objects of living nature, but isolated from their natural environment and thereby turned into a thing (fish on the table, game, etc.). And although this word is translated from French as “dead nature,” still life talks about the beauty of life; comfortable and useful things created by man, about beautiful creations of nature - flowers, fruits, seafood, etc.

Fairy-tale-mythological - a genre of fine art whose heroes are characters from epics, myths, and fairy tales. This is one of the most soulful and mysterious genres.

1.3. Coloring of the picture

An important role in creating paintings from wool, as in other types of creativity, is the compatibility of colors. Color is a certain relationship between all the colors and tones of a picture, subordinate to the overall tone. A harmonious combination often lies in the balance of warm and cold, light and dark tones

Here is an example of the most compatible colors:

The harmony of colors lies in their consistency and strict combination. The color wheel represents a closed spectrum band. At the ends of the diameter there are 4 main pure colors- red, yellow, green, blue. Between the pure colors there are intermediate (transitional) colors. The more colors differ from each other in hue, lightness and saturation, the less they are in harmony with each other. But there is a way to coordinate contrasting colors.

Blue-

brown

Violet

Yellow-

Green-

cream

We conclude that when creating a picture, it is necessary to take into account the color of the picture. It is necessary that each color of the pattern, taken in combination with other colors, does not “stick out” or “disappear”, but creates the overall impression of the main, fundamental tone. The richness of color lies not in diversity, but in the variety of shades and color transitions. When laying out paintings, you should first determine its main color, and then look for other shades.

1.4.Basic methods of painting with wool

Painting with wool is the creation of a picture by laying out wool layer by layer. There are two ways to paint with wool – wet and dry.

Dry method

Wool in layers

Basic techniques when creating a picture:


Laying out the background of the picture - pulling strands from the combed tape

Cutting strands of wool with scissors - to create small details of the picture

Twisting a rope - to create lines

Laying out cut strands with tweezers - to create subtle shades of the picture

Chapter 2 Using the specific features of the genre in your own wool painting works.

2. 1. Safety rules and sanitary and hygienic requirements when working with wool.

Working with wool requires increased attention and compliance with safety rules. Safety precautions are a set of measures that must be taken to maintain health. Painstaking work with strands of wool can be compared to working at a computer, which means you need to take care of your eyesight and posture. While working, you need to take breaks to do eye exercises and relax your muscles. Good lighting when working is very important. It is best to set up a workplace near a window. It is necessary to ensure that there are no drafts in the room, which can cause strands of wool to fly away. In the dark, be sure to use a table lamp. The work chair should be comfortable, with a hard back and suitable for height, so that working on the product does not tire you. You need to sit freely and straight. The body should be kept straight, with the head slightly tilted towards the work. Your feet need to be placed on something solid.

Safety regulations

1. Before starting work, wash your hands so as not to stain the product.

2. Use tools carefully.

3. Do not put scissors, strands of wool, or tweezers in your mouth.

4. Make sure that the glass, which is periodically pressed against the picture being created, is always in a safe place.

From the above it follows that the process of creating paintings from wool requires compliance with a set of health measures. It is necessary to equip the workplace in advance, create good lighting, and prepare the appropriate tools. It is necessary to protect your eyesight and posture. It is important to take breaks while working to relieve fatigue. Doing handicrafts should have a beneficial effect on a person’s psychological state.

2.2. Creating an algorithm for creating a painting from wool using the dry method

1. Determine the genre of work

2. Select the picture format

3. Prepare the necessary tools

4. Determine the sequence of laying out the layers of the painting. You should start by laying out the main background of the picture.

5. When laying out the main drawing and small details of the picture, it is necessary to periodically apply glass to the canvas being created. Failed parts can be replaced.

6. Observe safety precautions when working with tools.

7. When doing needlework, your hands should be clean.

8.Complete work.

9. Place the finished picture in the frame, pressed against the glass.

Thus, guided by the algorithm, it is possible to organize sequential work.

2.3. Creating your own collection of paintings created using the technique "Painting with wool."

Nowadays, the passion for handicrafts is experiencing a rebirth. An item created with your own hands brings a pleasant atmosphere of comfort and peace to your home. The paintings made of wool are extraordinary and attractive. Painting with wool provides endless possibilities for creating your own collection. The author embodies his plan, his artistic idea through the means of this type of art. The themes of my future paintings were formed under the influence of my interests and preferences. The occasion was various events: birthdays of people close to me, observing the behavior of birds and animals, a trip to relatives, natural objects. The collection consists of the following paintings:

Genre: Animation

"Carefree Tits"

A tit bird flew through the forest.

From branch to branch, the bird fluttered

And she chirped and sang,

And she cared little about others.

I wish I could be such a bird,

So as not to burden yourself with anything,

I know this dream is impossible

And that’s why she’s so desirable.

In this work I wanted to depict the playful and perky character of carefree titmice enjoying the sun. A picture with such a cheerful plot in the animation genre can be presented as a gift for a child. The tones of this painting are light and warm.

"Bullfinches"

Scarlet tassel dawn

Paints the bullfinch's breast,

So that in frosts and snowstorms

He didn't freeze in the snow.


I saw bullfinches outside my window last winter and was amazed at the bright colors of these birds. From my dad, I learned that these birds have an amazing feature that it would be nice for people to acquire: if one bird from a flock of bullfinches falls into a trap, then all the others rush to its aid. I wanted to depict these little heroes in my painting. And since bullfinches nest mainly in coniferous forests, I depicted them on a pine branch dusted with snow.

"Tiger Cub"

How I like the tiger cubAll striped kitten,And habits like a cat,He's just a little wild.

Tigers are amazing creatures! Despite the fact that they are predators, not herbivores (I watched a TV program about them). That is why in my picture he is so brave, with beautiful fur.

" bunny "

Bunny Mitka, although small,
But resourceful and daring.
Cleverly played pranks in the garden -
I thinned out the carrots in the morning.
I tore out the beets with roots,
Rutabagas laid out in rows...
Where did the cabbage grow yesterday?
The garden bed suddenly became empty.
That's the kind of daredevil he is.
This little trickster.

When I was a child, my mother often read me poems about rabbits. This painting was created based on these poems. This painting has a combination of light and bright colors. That's why she's so cheerful.

Genre "Landscape"

"Poppies in the field"

I don’t know more beautiful than angelic flowers,

Which are called red poppy...

I have never seen more tender petals -

Shiny, as if covered with varnish.

Their n atpurple tender heads

Above the field, like little flags,

They evade the wind so deftly

And graceful, but full of courage.

Bright flowers always attract a person's attention and lift his spirits. I wanted my grandmother to always have a light and cheerful heart, and therefore I created this painting as a gift for her.

"Irises"

The irises have bloomed again

A rainbow of delicate colors.

It seems like they came down from the sky

From the blue of the clouds.

In the morning in the garden I meet

Rainbow in splashes of dew.

I'm happy to accept again

A wonderful gift of spring.

And I gave this painting to my second grandmother with wishes for a good mood, so it is also made in cheerful colors.

"Winter landscape"

Snow on the roof, on the porch.

The sun is in the blue sky.

The stoves are heated in our house,

Smoke rises into the sky in a column.

Snowman, snowman
I'm used to living in the cold.
Don't be afraid for him
And in the frosty darkness
Leave alone
Starry winter night.



These works were performed using the “Wool Painting” technique using the dry method.

I began each piece by creating the main background of the painting by pulling strands of wool from the tape and laying them on a fabric base. Then I created a pattern on the background and shaded it with the necessary strands. During the work, all of the above methods of twisting, cutting and folding were used. The finished works were mounted in frames under glass.

2.4. Creating paintings from wool as a means of developing the aesthetic taste of students

In my opinion, painting with wool is undoubtedly a useful hobby for modern children. The process of working with wool has a psychological and physiological impact on the condition of schoolchildren.

Handicrafts drive away stress and dark thoughts. The nervous system calms down and mood improves. Personal qualities are developed: concentration, patience, accuracy.

As my ability to lay out paintings out of wool grew, I noticed an improvement in hand motor skills and greater coordination of movements. When making each subsequent painting, I pay attention to a number of positive aspects that characterize the needlework process.

First of all, it is a joyful feeling of harmony that arises when doing what you love. The feeling is born in creative thinking, when the images of the painting begin to take on clear outlines and color saturation as the canvas fills. When studying color, I discovered that the harmony of colors lies in their consistency and strict combination. Nature itself gave us such colors; we just need to skillfully apply the colorful bounty, the properties of color, and learn to recognize shades. Here fantasy presents different versions of the painting, component and color improvisations.

Painting with wool opened up my design skills. If desired, the paintings can be integrated into the interior of the rooms in such a way that the decor of the room will sparkle with new colors, surprising the guests.

All of the above factors constitute the prerequisites for the formation of students’ aesthetic taste. Aesthetic taste is a deep harmonious combination of the spiritual wealth of the individual; a system of specific emotional assessments of the phenomena of reality and works of art, which develops in a person on the basis of his ideas about the beautiful and the ugly, about beauty and artistry. People with aesthetic taste do not blindly follow fashion unless fashion accessories express their individual characteristics. Handicrafts play an important role in the formation and development of aesthetic taste.

Firstly, this is the ultimate goal of the activity towards which creativity is directed. The master feels a feeling of joy, satisfaction, and pride from contemplating the work done. Based on the practice of creating paintings, a sense of color, shape and their relationship develops. An aesthetic attitude to reality is manifested in the choice of color and style of clothing. When decorating the interior of their own home, people are also guided by aesthetic feelings.

Secondly, in the process of labor, a person masters the method of selecting various techniques, techniques, stylistic findings and discoveries that are part of the decorative and applied arts of many generations of people.

Thirdly, the first steps in the field of needlework can lead to mature author's works of the master. Aesthetic taste is formed throughout a person’s life. In my opinion, it is important to acquaint students as early as possible with the wealth of experience accumulated by humanity in folk art. The results of work always bring creative satisfaction.

So, in the process of mastering wool painting, children develop a unique set of values: the ability to contemplate the beauty of nature, the ability to analyze a situation and make decisions independently, the ability to learn, the ability to plan their activities, attentiveness, accuracy, and observation. Subsequently, they are expressed in actions. Such progressive aesthetic development allows us to characterize students as “well-mannered children,” that is, thinking and feeling, acting in accordance with the laws of society and nature.

Conclusion

At the beginning of the work, the following tasks were set: to study the history of the decorative and applied genre of the art of painting with wool; highlight the basic techniques of painting with wool; create an algorithm for creating paintings from wool using the dry method; create your own collection of paintings; to identify the influence of the process of working with wool on the formation of aesthetic taste and spiritual improvement of the author.

Wool painting is a special way of creating a painting without the use of brushes, paints, pencils or threads, by laying out colored sheep's wool in layers. Handicraft, as a type of decorative and applied art, has been formed from the primitive era to the present day. Wool painting as an artistic movement appeared at the dawn of the twentieth century in Germany; its founder was the German philosopher Rudolf Steiner. Painting with wool was done in two ways - wet and dry. Basic techniques - pulling, cutting, twisting, laying out with tweezers.

The main genres of painting with wool are animal painting, portrait, landscape, still life, fairy-tale and mythological genre.

An important role in painting with wool is the compatibility of colors. Color is a certain relationship between all the colors and tones of a picture, subordinate to the overall tone. When creating a painting, you should first determine its main color, and then look for other shades.

Painting with wool requires special attention and compliance with safety rules. Safety precautions are a set of measures that must be taken to maintain health. To preserve vision and posture, you need to equip your workplace: create good lighting, prepare the appropriate tools. Materials and tools for creating a picture from wool: frame, wool, fabric, scissors, tweezers.

To make the work process easy to organize for beginning needlewomen, we offer an algorithm for creating paintings using the “Wool Painting” technique using the dry method.

The ability to create paintings from wool is passed on from older to younger, and our family is no exception.

The themes of my own paintings were determined by my interests and preferences. The finished works were mounted in frames under glass.

In the process of creating a collection of paintings, I received aesthetic pleasure. Having spent many days painting, I was once again convinced of the need to develop discipline, organization, and self-control.

It follows that creating paintings from wool develops and mobilizes useful skills and abilities. The combination of hobbies, creativity and work in activities is optimal for the formation of aesthetic taste and spiritual improvement of schoolchildren.

Justification of the problem. Relevance.

I am familiar with various types of arts and crafts, and I like to master new technologies. I enjoyed doing cross stitch and knitting. But I’m not interested in staying in one place, because you can always find many new technologies. My attention was drawn to a new work made using the arts and crafts technique - “painting with wool”. She interested me, and I wanted to make my own painting using this technique, as well as master this type of needlework.

Relevance:

Creation of an individual route for studying a new type of arts and crafts technique “Painting with wool”.

Research part.

Felting is the oldest type of textile. Felt was made mainly from sheep's wool. Thanks to the top scaly layer, wool fibers under the influence of hot water and steam are able to adhere to each other, which is the principle of felting. Researchers date the beginning of the history of felt to 5-6 thousand BC, when the horse and dog were also domesticated, helping to herd large flocks.

For many peoples, wool served as the material from which clothing was made.

In Russia, felting is known primarily thanks to felt boots, although the history of felt boots in Rus' began not so long ago, about three centuries ago. The first Russian products made from wool were bath caps, hats and light shoes, which were called “chuni”. The people who made them were called sherstobits in Rus'.

The first mention of felt boots was found in “The Tale of Igor’s Campaign” (12th century). But these shoes were cut and sewn, they had at least one seam.

At the turn of the XX-XXI centuries. and today craftsmen, continuing folk traditions, create felts that not only satisfy utilitarian needs, but are also highly artistic examples of modern applied art.

Painting with wool is so named because there is little that distinguishes it from classical painting: the same bright colors, the same smooth color transitions, the same volume of the real world present in the picture, the ability to convey the texture of an object, light and shade. The only unusual thing is the material - dyed sheep's wool. They take it directly with their hands, without using any devices and, having turned it in their hands into the desired stroke, place it on the picture. The only tools used are scissors, because sometimes they are simply irreplaceable, for example, to create the effect of a brush stroke or an even outline of an object. Painting a picture can last a day, or it can take several weeks or months, it depends on the size and complexity of the work. Hence it turns out that each picture is unique, inimitable, each has its own energy...

This technique is based on the natural ability of wool to feel, without which the numerous layers of colored wool fibers that form the image would not be able to form a single pictorial canvas. Layer by layer, an image is obtained, which is pressed against the glass.

Technological stage.

Stage 1.

We remove the glass and put colored rough cardboard on top of the hardboard - a backing so that the bottom layer of wool adheres to the base. The work surface is ready.

Using the pulling method, when a strand of wool is pulled from a woolen ribbon, we begin to draw the background with wide thin strands, gradually filling the working surface from the edges to the center. At the same time, dark shades are placed in the lower layers, and light shades are placed at the end. I paint a landscape of mountains, flowers, high sky.

Determining the required thickness of the wool layer is simple - apply glass and see if the backing is visible. It shouldn't be visible.

Stage 2

Having finished working with the background, let's fill in the remaining part in the center. Simply pulling out the wool, tearing off small strands of it and placing it in the middle. Pull thin strands of wool from light-colored combed tape and place the desired size along the edge.

Stage 3.

Flowers. We start with small peripheral poppies. By pinching off a small amount of red wool, you will get a fuzzy poppy, which can additionally be covered along the edge with green wool, as if dissolving the flowers in space.

After the background poppies are completed, you can proceed to the central poppies. We gradually lay out the landscape in layers, pay attention to the lighting. To convey space, we use the laws of aerial perspective, changing the shades of the color of the fur.

The final stage

We wipe the glass that was set aside earlier and carefully cover the picture with it, cut off the wool protruding beyond the edges of the picture and secure it. The picture is ready!
