This artwork must have taken someone painstaking amounts of time to complete. Sure it looks like a painting (size was about 10-feet wide by 4-feet tall), at least that's what I thought at first when I spotted this piece in the lobby of a restaurant we stopped at for dinner.
(Below) However, on closer inspection it is revealed not to be brush strokes, but stitches. Yep, the entire thing is embroidered! What a massive undertaking...and blades of grass and flowers....it's like doing a 100,000-piece jigsaw puzzle without the box-cover to look at. Awesome, just awesome.
(Below) Detail on another embroidery located in the same restaurant lobby. Magnificent work, exquisite craftsmanship.
(Below) This picture was also of the 10x4-foot variety. Extraordinary stuff.
