Small Dog

Lorraine Corrigan | Wire and Paper Sculpture | 6H x 3D inches 

“I have always had a love of sculpting since studying art at level sculpture in school many years ago. I knew I would return to this form of art eventually but never found the right medium. Five years ago, I took a course in art therapy, and they gave us wire to play around with… I tried to make a dog (I adore dogs) and it ended up like a deformed lamb. I still have a fondness for that lamb that I kept! A year later I was running an art group for the homeless and thought why not make papier mâché heads of dogs? In my own time, I began to make whole dogs in papier mâché style. I had at last found my medium coupled with my love for sighthounds.” Lorraine
