Contrast creates visual interest, emphasis and clarity in a design that can guide the viewer's eye, separate information, and make certain parts of the design stand out from everything else. It can make your work pop, sparkle and sizzle, creating the difference between nice and wow.

Join me as I explore ways to add contrast to your embroidery art, offering current embroidery artists for you to research.

Contrast can transform your work from the ordinary into the extraordinary.

This episode of the Stitch Safari Podcast is the first in a series entitled 'Dynamic Embroidery'. Embroidery is an art form that adheres to the same practices, principles and devices as all other art forms - and that's exactly what I want to demonstrate with this Dynamic Embroidery series. And the first in this amazing series deals with the Power of Texture.

This is a unique space where abstraction encourages us to look beyond what we see, to feel the artist's expression of emotion and imagination formed by using fabric, techniques involving a needle and thread and a whole bucketload of intuition.

What does abstraction in embroidery mean? How do artists use stitches as their expressive tools? Who are some of the artists working in this arena of embroidery, and what ideas are they exploring? Finally, how can you begin to embrace embroidery in your unique creative journey?

Join me now as I explore this complex yet highly expressive world of abstract embroidery.
