My Dear, one of their awe-inspiring pieces, was created using a fiberglass taxidermy mold of a deer, which they embellished with realistic looking body parts, such as hooves, eyes, teeth, antlers, etc. After the form of the deer was complete they collaged specific canvases together on top. The inspiration for this piece was 'mating season,' and all of the canvases were compiled specifically for their romantic or erotic themes. The following photos show their process for putting this piece together. Amazing!
As well as animals, they also do human sculptures.
It's amazing what you can do if you use your imagination. Some people think needlepoint is just for pillows, framed art, or furniture, but these artists show you there's so many different ways you can do something spectacular if you are creative!
And look! Their dog even gets to join in on the fun! :)
These are awesome!!! We've done something similar with a sofa and footstool for a customer using some of her older needlepoint pieces integrated with fabric and "found" pieces, but these sculptures are really great art. Thanks for sharing.
