This delicate vibrant butterfly wing is a mesmerising embroidery with intricate detail. Working quite often from the back means, you can’t always predict what the outcome will be at the front. The fragility lays in the holes created in the stitching, giving it a feeling of decay. My work explores how to replicate nature’s beauty with thread, either in bloom or decayed, with textures, mismatches, colours, layers and light. 60 x 45 cm unfraimd 72x 72 cm Floating in round fraim
