A little stitching inspiration for the weekend from the needle of Marie E. Pieres.

This portrait is the work of artist Marie E. Pieres. I am captivated by not only the figure of the girl but also the texture, colour and variety of the canvas work stitches used in the background.
There is some detail about Marie's creative process on the My Modern Met website here. And more of her work on her website here. Have a look at the portraits gallery and also the rogues gallery where you will find a portrait of Hugh Grant!
Till next time, happy stitching!
Fantastic portraits, and I love the background.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing.
I think of canvas work stitches as geometric and regular so seeing them used in a painterly way is intriguing. Glad you enjoyed post.
