Visual Art – Phoenix

My embroidery began as a way for me to relax without the darkest parts of my mind telling me that I was wasting time, and with practice came improvement, advancement, and innovation. Even as my skills increase and bring attention to my work, embroidery remains, first and foremost, as a way for me to savor my free time by recreating images I enjoy. I’m excited to be a part of the movement that seeks to showcase the versatility of embroidery and needlepoint, and I regularly encourage anyone with an interest to pursue a hobby in textile arts.
