These textile animals may look real but on closer inspection, you'll see that they're just realistic art from the amazing Mr. Finch. The self-taught artist hunts and creates art from recycled material.
DIY projects are all the rage. While this often applies to clothing and re-appropriations of things, these pieces of art are also some of the coolest 'do-it-yourself' pieces I've seen in awhile. The animals look realistic while also being made of old and re-used textiles. The colors are vibrant, which is interesting considering the textiles used are old hunted pieces that Mr. Finch finds for himself.
Mr. Finch himself is also a self-taught artist who showed himself how to do all this so that should be inspiring to all artists out there.
