Last night I rigged a white backdrop on my desk so the work in progress shots will look a bit clearer for you. And today I'm working on the ripples around the ears. With my sphynx I used a large piece of fabric and worked it all into the sculpture to create the wrinkles. But with smooth coated dogs like this greyhound, it works better to have areas where the fabric flows, but other areas where it is tailored to the body. I love to incorporate draped fabric, but never to the detriment of the subject. It all has to work in perfect harmony. #wip #workinprogress #wipart #artistprocess #artsstudio #smallstudio #textileartist #fiberartist #softsculptureartist #sculptureartist #textileart #fiberart #sculpture #softsculpture #textiles #ukartist #britishartist #handstitched #animalart #dogart #dogportrait #madeinengland #handmadeintheuk #lockdownartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CO41QZ4nT9Z/?igshid=1ih5h60uhi4u1
