Painting and Drawing

To love is to paint
delicately dragging your brush across a canvas
being deliberate with every flick of your wrist
every stroke gentle and planned
and when you make a mistake, you don’t throw away the whole canvas
no, you pick up your brush and paint a happier picture over it

The working process behind my process many of my embroidery pieces, drawing and painting help to work through the some of the finer details and to imagine how they will work as embroidery pieces.
