Description:
Artist Statement: "I’ve been working on another garden-themed piece for what seems a very long time. And it’s going to be a lot longer largely because hand embroidery takes so much time. But on the upside I love the look and process of handwork, so I accept the length of time it takes.
I’ve placed the primary flowers, which are poppies. Some will be more realistic, while others are abstracted. My goal is to have a sense of realism without being photographically realistic."
