Some updated pictures of the
first painting. All I need to do now is to get it stretched onto a frame and do some embroidery onto it and it is finished. I feel like I am getting into 'the zone' which feels great - a place where I get totally absorbed into my work, forget to eat and lost track of time! Next painting is French Macaroons inspired by my
recent trip to Paris.
Noticed I've changed the teapot, teacup and bowl.
Prepping the background layers of colour
Choosing the stitching threads - which colours?
Hardest thing is manouvering the canvas under the sewing machine!
I am not the best sewer
Stay tuned for a pic of the finished painting later
I am completely awestruck by your work and the process of painting and stitching. Thank you so much for giving us a step by step guide.
ReplyDeleteOh, it is wonderful! I love it! Can't wait to see the finished project!

Such luscious colors and fabrics. Your painting/collage work is exquisite! Acornmoon is always right.
ReplyDeleteI am also fortunate to have had Acornmoon show me the way to your site. I do look forward to having the time to back track a bit and see more of your earlier postings. And your future posts, too.
ReplyDeleteCheers.
Fascinating to see the step-by-step process, thank you for sharing this with us. Here's hoping I don't miss out on one this time round. Best wishes
