2D Needlefelting portrait

 It was time to explore other possibilities of working with wool.

This is a portrait of my darling dog, Chihuahua. His name is Mickey. When he was a puppy he had such big ears so I named him Mickey Mouse.

To make such a portrait of wool you need needlefelting wool. Sometimes only a hair at the time. So very timeconsuming. Totally different of painting portraits of animals. But in a way it is not. The fact I have a lot of experience in working with paint and pastelpencils in drawing and painting portraits I felt confident about working with colors.

I hope you like him.


 This is how it started. Tiny pieces of wool, slowly building up.
