Join artist Robert Mahar and Courtney Cerruti in transforming a quartet of vintage black and white photographs with haunting embroidery embellishments. Instruction will guide you through best practices for stitching on paper, including the transfer of imagery and patterns, and clever finishing techniques. The resulting pieces can be displayed as spooky seasonal decor or year round wall art for those whose tastes lean towards the charmingly macabre. This conversation was recorded live October 16, 2024.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Project pdf - two copies printed on copy paper
- Lightweight cardboard to back printed photos (cereal boxes work great!)
- Adhesive - spray glue or glue stick
- Scissors
- Pencil
- Tape
- Embroidery needle (large, size 2 or 3)
- Embroidery floss or perle cotton
- Optional piercing tool
- Optional thimble
