I love how compassionate, loving, gentle, and playful dolphins are. I have always longed to swim with them. I hope you can feel that here, in my new needle-felt painting. (Smiling)
Dolphin and calf by Cheryl Rainfield.
I worked on it in between working on my manuscript and a paper on book challenges. It’s good to do something creative and stress busting on the weekends.If you haven’t tried it, I think needle felting is great for mental health. So is any creative outlet. My favourites are writing, art, and crafting.
About Cheryl Rainfield

I'm the author of SCARS (WestSide Books, 2010) #1 ALA QuickPicks, and Governor General Literary Award Finalist, HUNTED (WestSide Books, Oct 2011), STAINED (Harcourt, 2013), The Last Dragon (HIP Books, Sept 2009), and Walking Both Sides (HIP Books, 2011). I also enjoy drawing, surfing the web, connecting with people I like, doing crafts, and being with my dog.
