Embroidered portraits

Daniel Kornrumpf's embroidered portraits blow my mind. Can you imagine how long they would take? I love the incredible detail, like wayward mustache hairs and hungover eyes.

P.S. Motherhood Monday post coming up!

  32. Pretty phenomenal skill here. They remind me of my friends' portrait that they had done by an elderly artist in Minneapolis who creates art with rice and seeds and based off of photographs. Theirs is amazingly complex in structure but hysterical in its interpretation...their faces look like they each had a stroke. I guess the woman passed away right after completing their artwork- so it has something of a legendary status in their social circle. Very amusing.

  42. String on the Freshwater Pearl Beads and spacers through the needle onto the elastic starting with a pearl. The first akoya pearls should be positioned 5 cm from the end of the elastic. Hold each end of the Freshwater Pearl Bracelet in your hands and tighten the elastic by pulling the elastic while holding the Freshwater Pearl Earring and spacers tight together. Keep holding each end in each hand and now tie a square knot. wholesale jewelry supplies from online store for small business is a great choice. china jewelry

  46. I love these! My uncle is an artist in Philly who also does embroidery. He uses damaged or void x-rays, weaving only part of the picture and leaving the rest exposed. It's awesome! Check them out here: http://matthewcoxartist.com/
