TEXTILE ARTS<br />

STUDENT CATEGORY<br />

For my project “Painting with Beads and Thread” I tried to emulate shadows and the 3D form using beads and thread. Drawing inspiration from the<br />

art nouveau movement I chose symbolic elements that tell a story about the pressures of graduating and going out in the real world. I utilized bead<br />

embroidery for the flowers, moon and background; Trapunto to make the woman stand out; and long and short embroidery stitching to describe<br />

the body form<br />
