Gai Button is a sculptural artist who works in needlefelt, clay and other media. With a creative mind and love of animals great and small, Gai used fur from her pet poodle to make her first little dogs before expanding her horizons to take in different wools, silks and fibres to make all manner of creatures.
Gai's needle-felted dogs are in collections all around the world, and she has written a number of articles for both craft and dog enthusiast magazines. She holds craft workshops in her studio near the sea and demonstrates across the UK
