I use a unique embroidery technique that produces stunning results through blending threads and colors
I have spent more than forty years of my life thread painting for relaxation. While a Registered Nurse by profession, I developed this embroidery technique which relies on long, smooth stitches and intricate shading to produce stunning results through blending threads and colors. I love being able to capture favorite paintings or familiar scenes in thread and view it as an amazing adventure. I will often celebrate special occasions by embroidering a picture to represent it.
My favorite is Almond Blossom by Van Gogh. I saw his exhibit years ago in Los Angeles and fell in love with this wall sized painting. I knew I had to do something with it my way.
It was my first effort working on a major piece of art and trying to do it justice.
I retired from nursing several years ago, got involved in the art community greatly encouraged by a local artist Lea McAndrews. I also teach yoga mostly at a retirement community and practice it daily.
