Lindisfarne Castle art print, a beautiful sunset with Bamburgh Castle in the distance in Northumberland, a limited edition of 95, by felt artist Janine Jacques.
We’ve developed quite a fondness for Northumberland over the years, finding ourselves drawn back time and again. One of our regular haunts is Holy Island, where we love to take walks around the island with the kids.
As we approached Lindisfarne Castle, with the silhouette of Bamburgh Castle in the distance across on the mainland, we were once again reminded of the magic of Northumberland. Each visit leaves us with cherished memories spent in this beautiful place.
In this artwork, I’ve hand-sewn some purple embroidery into the foreground, depicting the plants found their. I have also added some material in with the wool to add extra texture.

Drawing on my degree in Fine Art, I use wool in lots of different colours (as you would tubes of paint) and lay out the loose fibres of different coloured wool onto my base (as you would paint on canvas).
Once finished the next stage is to make these loose fibres of wool stick together using the ‘wet felting’ technique to make the wool painting into a piece of felt. You do this by adding hot soapy water and friction. The hot water opens up the wools scales and the friction (rubbing/rolling) binds them together. During this process the wool shrinks by about 15-20% and you end up with one piece of felt material.
Once the felted picture is dry I needle felt into the piece to sharpen some of the details.
The final felt art is attached to a piece of acid free mount board and mounted and framed as seen.
