Original artwork description:

Summer colors, happy bright red and yellows and of course, a magpie
a piece of bright white linen fabric is my background, I have free motion embroidered on my linocut magpie, and painted and collaged on the flowers before I move on to the embroidering.
First I make the composition, using all my own fabrics, printed with my linocuts and then I have embroidered extensively over the entire piece on my sewing machine. When I am all done, I add backing to the piece to stabilize it.
As it is freehand embroidery it has a drawing quality to it. The textile adds warmth to any space, and I just love making these, imagination can run riot and a textile art piece has so much depth and richness to it.

The piece measures 55 cm x 75 cm ( 21" x 29/5")
I do intend for these pieces to be framed, there is enough textile to have a nice surround and the textile pieces I make are impactful enough to be able to go big, to make a statement piece!
I have signed the artwork in stitch on the front and it comes with a certificate of authenticity.

I ship from my studio in the south of Denmark, all my pieces are packed with many years experience to make sure they arrive safely (see my over 1000 reviews).

If you have any questions at all, just get in touch!
