Scotland-based French artist Ophélie Trichereau illustrates fantastic visions in gouache and watercolor. It is her embroideries, though, that I find most impressive, especially the planetary ones. Below are a few of my favorites.
At this writing, she has two different views of Jupiter available. I like this one:
Here’s Callisto:
Last but certainly not the least, the Sun:
So impressive! Every shade of every color is carefully selected, and shapes created with the stiching make the whole even more expressive. The intricacy of the patterns means they can’t be a fast project to create, but, then again, is anything worth doing worth doing sloppily? Trichereau’s effort really shows. Kudos!
See more of Trichereau’s work on Etsy or via LinkTree.
