Art work: Mimi Spirits by Thompson Nganjmirra - Mimi spirits are nonphysical beings who have been present and active since Creation and are attributed to the Kunwinjku people, of Kakadu. This blog has been developed to display my work for the City and Guild Level III Certificate in Embroidery with Sian Martin of Distant Stitch and other interesting photos of Australia and inspirations from my travels around the world.

Module 1 Resolved Sample Details
Details showing further hand stitching to enhance the overall piece and add to the effect of disintegration. Layers are emphasised by staggering and burning the edges to create an irregular border and add to the weathered look.
The background layer has been given a pearlised finish to give the impression of the sun sparkling through water, the bright coloured French Knots blend with the background and also depict the colours of coral and fish in a tropical sea.
