Tapas in Berlin.

I am very fortunate to have an extremely precious friend who is also both muse and patron.

Last night we had a feast of tapas and paella in Kreuzberg while I experimented with some new crosshatching techniques and detail linework in an attempt to represent her latest haircolor.

Hearts Afire

I finished two ridiculously time-consuming embroidery pieces this week.

I figured they deserved gold frames. I hadn’t gold-leafed anything in a really long time and I’d forgotten how fun it is. I’m putting all my embroidery work up on flickr too, licensed CC. If anybody ever wants to copy these for their own embroidery, be inspired by them, use them as tattoos- I would be very pleased!

UPDATE: both these pieces have been sold, but you can commission similar works.
