Ok, so eleven days ago I wrote about an artist named Shaun Kardinal, an American artist who adds embroidery to found images… later that day I found this ridiculously fantastic work by Stacey Page, an American artist who, as you can plainly see, also adds embroidery to found images {same technique, but very different results}. Now, not wanting to become totally predictable in what makes me jealous, I tried to space them out as much as I could. For eleven long days these beautifully bizarre faces have been staring at me from my drafts folder, and I can no longer control myself! Call me predictable if you must, but the heart wants what the heart wants… and clearly my heart wants some embroidery thread applied to a vintage photograph.
{Oh, and did I mention that two weeks before the Shaun Kardinal post, I wrote about London based artist Maurizio Anzeri. Guess what kind of work he does…}
Oh, aren’t these fabulous? I really want some embroidered art stuffing my stocking this Christmas.
me too! me too!
