Elizabeth Stubbs has been an artist all her life, experimenting with a wide variety of media and materials along the way. She earned a BFA in Painting from Boston University, and after many fulfilling years as an art teacher, she transitioned into a career as a freelance illustrator. When she is not in her studio at home in Nahant, MA, she enjoys sharing her enthusiasm for felt-making with her students. She is a member of the North East Feltmakers Guild and the International Feltmakers Association.
Each chapter of her creative life has deepened her appreciation for the power of making things by hand. That appreciation found its fullest expression in 1997, when Elizabeth encountered the ancient art of felt-making during her Waldorf teacher training. Wool has become her primary medium — a material she finds endlessly expressive, tactile, and alive. Today, Elizabeth brings decades of artistic experience and a genuine love of craft into the classroom, creating a warm and encouraging space where students can discover the magic of working with wool for themselves.
