I am in love with dogs at the beach. I love needle felting beaches for dogs to run on, even if the dogs are only in my mind's eye. It was time to make another beach...
I was inspired by two images, one of a pink sunset on a beach and one of two dogs sitting on a cliff. I thought to combine the two and place the sweet dogs on the lovely beach...
The pinks in the sky are a blend of 3 colors.
First I completed the beach, here it is:
I cut out the dogs from the picture I liked in a few different sizes and picked the one that fitted the best:
Then I cut the dogs out of prefelt (from Fibrecraft, lovely stuff to work with) and tacked them on.
The black dog was too harsh and looked like a silhouette so I was inspired by my sweet Russel to give him some white markings. This also made his face easier to see. I used a black bead for his eye and it added a little sparkle to his face. Charming!
The shadows made it look more finished, but they were a little short so I lengthened them...
