This was the first piece I did in thread painting. It was made from a photo taken by a friend in Europe Ali Rumble and used with permission. It began my love of thread painting animals. I have since thread painted cats, dogs, birds and a fox. I continue to look for pictures posted online of animals and with the owner's permission have done many pieces.
