About This Work
Two full pink poppy-like blossoms with darkly shaded centers sit above soft sage-green leaves. Graduated pink-to-white shading gives the petals a realistic, dimensional quality. Worked in long-and-short needle-painting with satin-filled leaves.
Stitch Technique: Needle-Painting (Long-and-Short)
Long-and-short stitches blended to create painterly, graduated shading on petals and plumage.
