The Hippo & Oxpecker by Dani Ives

Dani Ives is an award-winning artist, author and educator. Her primary art medium is fiber, and she creates highly detailed pieces with wool fibers and needle felting techniques in a process she calls “Painting with Wool.” Dani’s work has been featured by Martha Stewart, Fiber Art Now, The Oprah Magazine, American Craft, Colossal, and more. She also shows her work in galleries and art shows across the U.S. She lives in Northwest Arkansas with her husband and her dog, June Bug. When she's not needle felting, you'll find her working in her sketchbook, reading, or hiking the forest trails near her home.
