Sculptor and paper artist Lorraine Corrigan describes herself as ‘living the simple life in West Wales.’ If her work is any way to judge, she’s been very successful in her efforts to relax with her sighthounds who are also her muses, obviously. F.Y.I. (since I had to look it up), a sighthound is a hound dog breed which was specifically bred to hunt independent from their humans, like greyhounds and whippets. A self-taught artist, Corrigan has perfected her own technique using wire, glue, and layers of paper rescued from recycled books. Her technique results in solid works of art which she can them further carve and manipulate to create her lovely, life-like-looking dogs.
