Oversaturated

Part of my current "Combustion" series, which features hundreds of french knots, layered in various sizes and colors to build dimension and movement onto the vintage photographs.

Embroidery is created by hand, directly onto the photograph, using French cotton embroidery thread and American hand-dyed silk thread. 

The vintage photograph measures about 4.5"x 7.5" and is unframed.  Piece will be signed and dated on the back.

Please note: the edges of the photograph have been damaged from its travels between hands of antique shops and flea markets. I have not cropped the image to remove the damage, and have left the photograph as is. Framers can cover the damage up with matboard as needed.
