Kaszuby Hafty, 16”x16”, mixed media on board
Embroidery with paint, paper and glue wouldn’t be embroidery any longer. But the color inspiration for this piece comes from traditional Kashubian hafty (embroidery). It’s been years since we all did embroidery back in art class. That was the post-hippie 1970s when embroidery was big — yes, my mom even made an embroidered work shirt for me.
