Description of Process
Soft fascination, or a state of passive introspection, most often occurs for me while working on a needlepoint project. This print, made at In Cahoots Residency, explores that feeling using printed plastic needlepoint canvases, and a "mending" of the F in "soft" with cross-stitch.
