Embroidery

-


 I made this embroidery of geometrical shapes on a canvas using red, and green sewing thread.

To be honest, I didn't followed any rules, and steps for embroidery to create this piece.

Firstly, I didn't made it on  an embroidery cloth, secondly, I did random horizontal, vertical, and diagonal stitching, and thirdly, I didn't even used embroidery thread!

To make this piece, I first drew shapes on canvas using a scale, and a regular pencil. Then I simply filled them in by stitching with red, and green stitching thread.

And oh, I forgot to thank my neighbour for lending me her red thread, because I didn't had any such shades except for, green, white, and black, not a good contrast, is it?

 These are a couple of my paintings I hanged in my bedroom. The first one, I painted on a 10x10 canvas, using black, and green water colours, and a silver paint marker.  First, I painted a random black diamond on the canvas, then painted the inside with green water colour, and then stroked it with a toothbrush for a free style look. In the end, I wrote Eleanor Roosevelt's quote "You can often change your circumstances by changing your attitude" using a silver paint marker. The second one, I painted on a 8x8 canvas, using ivory black, lemon yellow, cerulean blue, cerulean orange, phtalo green, burnt umber, raw umber, Chinese white, and crimson red acrylic colours. In the beginning, I drew a line on the bottom quarter of the canvas, to divide it up between table cloth, and the back ground, then, drew check design using s regular pencil, and a scale, then painted them in using crimson red acrylic colour, (didn't bothered for the white, since the canvas was already white)...
