I’m A Needle Felt Artist From A Small Village And I Bring Old Brushes Nobody Would Look Twice At Back To Life
I am a needle felt artist from a small village on the Northumbrian coast in the UK surrounded by castles, cats and copious amounts of tea.
I find old, beaten up, heavily used brushes that nobody would look twice at and bring them back to life with tiny animals stabbed to life with wool, creating whimsical pieces filled with life, curiosity, and danger.

This artist should be doing animation for Wes Anderson. Reminds me of The Fantastic Mr. Fox or Isle of Dogs.

I saw the Bored Panda article on Fb, 20 minutes of research later I had a name for the gentleman felter and the knowledge that the Fenwick gallery had sold out of all your pieces. I would like to know 2 things please ...1/ How or where can your pieces be purchased? and 2/ Do you take commissions ? With a possible third curious of favourite tea? Thank you

You do beautiful work—breathing new life into objects otherwise destined for a landfill. Today’s world needs more artists like you who see possibility (light) in the impossible (darkness).
