The Secret Life of Squirrels II by Nancy Rose for Clothworks
Nancy Rose lives surrounded by nature in Nova Scotia, Canada. She grew up in a large family where creativity was always encouraged, and when she wasnt teaching, she was crafting. In 2010 she discovered the curiosity of the little North American Red Squirrels who raided the bird feeders in her backyard. By making squirrel-size props, she has created hundreds of scenarios where the inquisitive squirrels find themselves in some rather human-like poses as they search for peanuts. Gradually the secret life of her backyard squirrels emerged. Her first actor, Mr. Peanuts, has been followed by many more who come daily for peanuts and sunflower seeds. Sometimes she gets a good shot right away, but more often it takes hundreds of photos to get a clearly focused shot that tells the story Nancy has in her head.
