CROCHETDERMY LOVE


If you are anything like me and love taxidermy/trophy heads but find the notion of dead animals lurking in your house a bit grim - here is the perfect solution. SHAUNA RICHARDSON creates CROCHETDERMY sculptures which combines two traditional crafts in an extraordinary way. I can't get over how perfectly uniform her stitches are and the lovely curves of the anatomy underneath. Muscle in mohair. It is almost as if she brings animated creatures into solid form. And they are fuzzy! Thanks to HOMES & ANTIQUES Sept 2012 Issue for introducing me to Shauna's work.
