Concentration #3

The subject of my work is Garfield and Odie as caterpillars. Honestly, no idea where this idea came from. Friend of mine wanted me to make Garfield, so I combined Garfield with another animal to stick to my concentration- a caterpillar. The work was made with wool, aka needle felting. I started out with making a ball for a head and slowly adding details to it. Then I made a long body and added feet and stripes to it including a tail.I then made Odie because I had extra time to kill. I chose to create this because I love character design. This is my favorite concentration so far. I used shape, color, form, texture and space in the piece.

I was originally going to just have Garfunkle, but then I made Odie and I'm happy I did. Odie adds a whole new meaning to the piece, it looks like they care about each other. One thing I dislike is how Garfunkle looks like a long cat, it's hard to tell he's a caterpillar. But I still like how adorable it is.

The only thing I have to say about this piece is that it's Henry's fault, haha.
