About the artwork

This young alpaca looks at you curiously and friendly. The portrait captures the soft, woolly fur and round muzzle in a subtle and playful way. The ears stand out alertly and the gleam in the eyes gives the animal a lively, disarming presence. The lines dance around the contours without ever becoming severe, and that is precisely what gives the work air and movement. It feels warm and homely, but at the same time graphic and contemporary. Ideal for those who love animals with character or have a love for rustic mountain animals.

The portrait is composed of many loose black threads, which give the work a playful character. Together, they create a vivid image full of texture and movement. The subject shows subtle densities and the background of handmade paper gives the work a warm, natural base.

This work is part of my 'wire portraits' series of human and animal portraits, including endearing baby animals. To be found in my personal shop.

This series grew out of my love for materials with character and story. Handmade paper fascinates me. Every fibre, every irregularity is unique and depends on the origin of the paper. The thin black thread makes it fragile and in some places almost seems to merge into the paper itself. This combination, together with my passion for creating portraits of people and animals, ensures that I have worked on each artwork with great pleasure and dedication. Each portrait is carefully constructed using Artificial Intelligence, with an eye for detail and a deep sense of connection. A unique collaboration between human feeling and digital imagination.
