Dani Ives - Painting with Wool
This is Dani Ives and this is Dani Ives' self portrait!
Dani Ives is an exceptional Fibre Artist from Arkansas, America. She was always artistic but never thought of making her art a career. Dani started out working with animals and as an educator at Dickerson Park Zoo in Missouri. She was introduced to needle felting by a co-worker and a passion was born. Dani uses her background in biology to 'paint' lifelike images of the wildlife she knew so well, with wool. Her aim is to bring wool into the art world as a respected medium, surprising audiences all over the world with the incredible realism she achieves.
Have a look at some of her work, it really is remarkable!
