She is inspired by a love of textures and layers and, although this can be achieved with paint, stitched art can really encourage the viewer to speculate on how the work was achieved. The speed and capricious nature of the sewing machine, when used in this unconventional way, reflects characteristics of her subjects. Threads are purposely left loose over or around the image to allow the illusion of more depth and movement. Through careful observation and drawing studies, she gives her animals a ‘stare’, with almost anthropomorphic qualities, which invites the audience to recall their own memories or relationship which they have formed with animals, domestic or wild and also to hopefully encourage them to perceive the characters of the animals they encounter.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Julie French","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55614276829560,"sku":"26AO152","price":500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0016\/8014\/6476\/files\/JulieFrench-Fox.jpg?v=1784737925","url":"https:\/\/atelierbrighton.co.uk\/products\/26ao152","provider":"Atelier Beside the Sea","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
