First Self Designed Composition
Tips/advice for the layout/composition of my mixed media embroidered art piece??
I'm planning on using a mix of felting, embroidery, hand spin silk thread, and silk cocoons. I have lots of experience doing embroidery patterns but have never made my own before. Usually I just free form when I do my own thing, but since this is going to be entered into the state fair, I want a more polished thought-out look.
The first is a picture of the colors and supplies I plan to use. The hoop canvas is a recycled navy blue T-shirt material. The second picture is what I envision in my head but I'm a horrible drawer.
I just need a basic guide for what I'm stitching as I feel comfortable eye balling things for the most part. Do I just transfer basic shapes to my canvas and work from there?
