About Me

Welcome! 

Lakehouse Felting was founded through my love of art and creating artwork!.  I have always loved painting landscapes, now I create them with wool instead of paint. 


One of the services offered is pet portraits, I work with the owner to create a portrait that captures the feeling and personality of the pet. On the website you will see examples of the portraits I have done and testimonials from their owners!


Nate's Woodland Animals! It started with an Owl!

My grandson loves animals, I create a series of ornaments I call Nate's Woodland Animals. These feature the animals that my grandson loves so much; ready to hang on your Christmas tree.It started with an owl and grows each year! I have added Mugs and prints to Nate's collection.


At Lakehouse Felting,I offer a range of workshops and kits designed for all skill levels. Teaching is one of my passions and  the class or kit focus is on felting techniques that foster creativity and self-expression.  The classes are offered in studio at Dartmouth, NS or On line.


Questions? please contact me I would love to hear from you!

Photo Gallery

river felted

This is a picture of the Northeast Margaree River in Nova Scotia. My friend sent me the picture and I fell in love. I could feel the warmth of the sun, hear the birds and summer insects, and feel the cool water over the river rocks.  All that is missing is two Golden Retrievers playing in the river and someone fly fishing. Felted with 100% wool on Cotton.  Limited edition prints available.

Owl in the woods

I love the warm sunlight shining through the trees.  The owl resting on the branch flew over me just after I took the picture. 100% wool felted on  wool felt from a picture I took behind my son's house in Victoria, BC  Limited Edition prints available

Raccoon

Meet Chubby, I did a color pencil course with Bonny Snowdon.  The Raccoon we did looked identical to the one that comes to my house for treats each night.  Color pencil on Matt board. Mugs and LTD Edition Prints available.

Felted laundry line

Needle felted painting of laundry hanging on the line at my mother's Newfoundland home.


Felted autumn reflection

Needle felted painting of Autumn foliage reflected in still lake waters. The lake was so still it was like glass with little ripples.

Needle felted spring medows

Driving through the country side inspired this felt painting of spring meadows. This painting is also available as a kit.

I have two pieces done by Gail for me. Gail was easy to work with and completed both ahead of time. The colors are perfect and she even captured the personality of the cat I asked her to do from a photo. I’m very pleased with Gail’s work and will be getting more of her art for some wedding gifts.


Tina LeGay

Gail's felt painting of our BC backyard captured the spirit of the woods and the magic that we felt during that time. It will hang on my wall las a memory of our Vancouver Island life for many years to come.

I am writing this testimony in regard to the portrait Gail did for me. My beautiful dog was brought back to life with this detailed portrait, it is lifelike and she captured the essence of his personality and loving eyes I’m so happy with it and I can’t thank her enough I will be forever grateful!

      Raccoon, colour pencil on Matt Board.
Original Artwork, prints, note cards and mugs available.

      picture of owl in the woods in the afternoon sunlight.

      OWL in the wood.  This picture is 100%wool felted on wool felt. Photo taken in the woods behind U of Vic's student housing. I loved the way the sun  cast such a warm glow on everything.  I was lucky to catch this photo before the owl flew into the woods.

      River with reflections of trees and clouds in the water

      This picture is done from a photo given to me.
