Women in the Field – Renoir Inspired Needle Felted Fiber Portrait

Inspired by Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s luminous depictions of rural life, Women in the Field is reimagined here through the softness and dimensionality of alpaca fiber. Crafted entirely by hand with richly dyed and painted fibers, the portrait translates Renoir’s gentle brushwork into layers of texture that celebrate both artistry and craft.

Each detail is meticulously placed, creating a one-of-a-kind work that honors Impressionist light and color while offering the tactile richness unique to alpaca.
