@128J - thanks for your kind comments! I do all body parts separately (head, including the open mouth, is one piece, I just changed colours where needed), then stuff and sew them together as I go. It’s actually not too difficult to get dimensions right, as long as you know what your gauge/tension is with certain needle and yarn size combinations. I make actual size sketches of the things I want to make then work from them

Are they realistic drawings or drawings of a completed yarn sculpture? What other animals have you made?

@happysobercrafter - thanks!
I’ve only made horses so far but have plans for many accessories including riders. Also want to make general dollhouse things later. I’m quite slow at actually getting stuff done so it could be a few months more until I move onto the next big project!@128J - they’re anatomically accurate (but not always really detailed) sketches at the size I want to make the thing, so I can measure it and know how many stitches and rows etc are in that part. There’s a lot of trial and error, too, but it’s really satisfying when it turns out right! I’m just doing horses right now, but there are other animals I’d like to make later! |

Working mostly with oils for my paintings. Colored pencils for my drawings. Downandlonely writing is not artistic medium but it certainly can be creative. Hope you get support being a member of PC. Rise13eyond .Impressed with your artwork.

@mugwort2 Do you use line work before painting or do you just go right in with the paint?
I am very unfamiliar with the process. |
