I usually post finished pieces, but this one is still a work in frogress 🐸

#embroidery #handembroidery #blueskyart #wildlifeart #frogartI know nothing about embroidery, so I do not know if it's your particular style, or if it's something intrinsic to embroidery, but your work has a somewhat Monet / van Gogh Impressionism quality about it. Incredibly cool. 👍
Thank you! This style of stitching is called threadpainting, so there's that. I think because the individual thread colors can't be mixed/blended like you can with paint, it evokes the more impressionistic painters who used visible strokes with individual colors. Just a thought 🤔
'Threadpainting' is a very apt descriptor. 🙂 "𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘶𝘢𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘴 𝘤𝘢𝘯'𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘹𝘦𝘥/𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘱𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘵… ." Yeah, that makes sense. It's almost like a kind of pointillism, but with thread. I dig it.
(Your use of color is excellent, btw [the choices you make]).
