However ... Dreams very often lead us to unexpected and extraordinary ideas!
So, sculptor artist from the UK Helen Thomson Helen Thompson) creates with his own hands of incredible dogs from the vet.
It all started in childhood. The young artist lived two favorite dogs - Balzac and Trevis. Balzac was a mixture of a setter and collie - fluffy, ridiculous and loved in life. Trevis looked like a large black bear and possessed a relaxed and gentle temper. It was he who became for Helen the source of admiration and, in conclusion, creative inspiration. The girl believes that every dog has a very expressive muzzle and a unique character that can be depicted. Dogs, like people, are able to worry, rejoice and wander.
It was helen acted on the creation of such unusual sculptures, the disheveled mums of dogs from ancient Egypt. Images are created on the basis of interesting photos or sketches, however, the expression of the muzzle is still born in the process of work. As a material, the master uses a wire base and a rag: old linen rags, burlap and vintage fabrics. The older material, the more supportive. The manually sewers the pieces of matter among themselves and argues that the stitches give the image of peace and character.
Absolutely every work Helen Thompson (The size of the work is approx. 25-50 cm) is incredibly realistic and mental. Dogs seem to reflect their destiny. According to the master, its sculptures transmit "uniqueness, some fragility and character of animals", because they need so much warm and affection. Helen pays attention to the problem of homeless animals.
