Indigo ink on paper x embroidery silk x pencil

10.5cm x 15cm

 

First the design is hand painted with indigo ink, once dried combined acrylic barnacles and seaweeds then hand embroidery and pencil details are added.

This series of work explores the ocean & ocean life migration.

I have been very interested in Japanese Indigo and the dye techniques for some time and have recently made my own ink using indigo leaf powder. This new series of hand painted originals uses that ink and traditional techniques of application.

Every design within the 'Indigo Ink' series is unique.

Hand embroidery sits delicately on acid free, naturally white 300gsm paper , I have used silk yarn French knots to create this textural art.

ALL STANDARD SHIPPING INCLUDED - if you would like to have your order tracked there is a small extra charge of $5. I try to keep shipping costs worldwide as affordable as possible but can't always absorb the cost on the smaller items.
