Updated with painting pic, New Story, New painting and a new form of art
I have just about finished my latest Walter McMouse story and a new painting- its of Red Abby in Cork, Ireland. Red Abby is a national monument. It was built in the 14th century and all that is left of it, is the bell tower.. The painting is of what I think it might have looked like in the 14th century when it was being used as a monastery. The tower was built in Medieval Gothic style so that is how I painted the rest of the bulding.
I'll be posting up my painting as soon as my cellphone is recharged LOL.
The story is about Walter and Gracey meeting for the 1st time. It's about how different two lifes can be, are even under the same roof and become friends.
I have painted Walter before and have drawn him as a coloring page when I taught at the school, where my own children attended yrs ago. I have also made a few mice for my cat to play with (as ironic is as this lol) But I have never done felting before.
Felting is a little different than making a stuffed toy. You use felt batting and wind it around a wire frame or knoted batting then wrap with more felt. You also use felting pins to shape it, add colors and details.
I have seen these on Pinterest and they look so real. I'm thinking of trying my hand at it, just for fun :) (as if I don't have enought art stuff to play with LOL)
More things exciting things to come! Have a blessed night!
