Oh DEERy Me!

Again I've continued recording people and trying to recreate this action in several materials. Some of the results of this, this week are these:

I like how this one describes the action of the figure. The heavier black spots being where he stops for a few moments

These are just simple hand done stitches. I wanted to use a machine, but ya know, health and safety takes the fun out of everything.

1st years got the chance to do print lately. Had to take the opportunity

I noticed patterns I liked on a larger piece, so I stuck my favorites together. 

 But as with anything I've become bored with people and need to step things up a gear. I'm going to look at deer (hence the title). With not a lot of time on my hands I haven't been able to get to the woods near my house to view the deer there, so as a substitute I've been watching You-Tube videos to study them.

They can duck, dodge and dive oh so well. They can sense their space much better than people. Makes for much more interesting pieces as well. I've made a small flip book depicting a short burst of a deer.
