Gladly trying

We have started workshops. They offer the opportunity to try out new methods for which you might not have the materials yourself. Who knows, a fun hobby might come out of it!

She comes more often and enjoys trying out new things. A trend has developed where she asks: ‘Should I approach it this way or that way?’ In which I always provide a third option that is new for her.

By now, she always starts to chuckle – ‘I should have known! You always take me out of my options and add something new that I hadn’t thought of!’

For this piece, she completely stepped outside her usual boundaries: – instead of working on the photo, she started embroidering a second sheet that partially overlaps the first – she combined colors she has never used together before – the stem needed to be thicker than the rest, but how? This is her solution.
And what fun she had experimenting, even though it was accompanied by a lot of doubt.
She’s super proud of the result!
