Day 23 - The Devil Made Me Do It


I've always wanted to try my hand at felting. After all, I can sculpt a pumpkin, shouldn't I be able to shape a little animal from some wool? The answer is yes...four hours and ten pricked fingers later. Those felting needles are crazy dangerous! But I kinda like how my first attempt turned out. One thing I did learn...start earlier in the day! Eleven P.M. on a Sunday night is not the time to find out that the eyes are missing. So, as any good artist did, I improvised. Two little red pins later and I had eyes! Okay, so I missed the mark on sweetness...but for a demon cat he looks pretty great!
