Yip! Yap! Yarn? This Fiber Artist Puts a New Spin on Shedding Pets
Walk into Doreen A. Kelly’s home, and it is clear she is an animal-lover. And Kelly, a fiber artisan, sits at her spinning wheel working on a project: hand-spinning dog hair into yarn.

Gober is a New York sculptor who specializes in making people feel uneasy in the face of familiar objects. Burchfield was a prolific twentieth-century painter who worked almost exclusively in watercolors and made his name with American Scene painting—an earnest, realist art movement that flourished in the 1930s.
