As part of my personal study, one of my researched artists was Shaun Kardinal. His work with the embroidery really intrigued me, leading me to make one of my own. One I had chosen the image that I wished to use I printed it out on A4 glossy photo paper to give it a nice finish. As all of the colours in the image are very plain tones I chose to use red thread. I also chose to stitch in a circle as the building in question has lost of straight lines and corner meaning there would be a contrast. I placed the circle of stitching in the middle to make it a focal point for the viewer and to draw them in so that they can then look further into it to see the detail in great depth. I am very happy with how this piece turned out and as a part of my final prints I am going to either, back it onto red and black card to tie in the red, or frame it in black to make it more put together.
final outcome:
