Trish Burr — Needle painting and color study

Trish Burr’s work is useful for studying hand-embroidered shading and visual detail.

Put it into practice

Use your own small botanical reference to select a limited tonal palette. Practice the transition on a spare piece before starting a detailed subject.

Keep a useful record

Keep a small sample beside your notes. Record the fabric, thread, colors and order of work so you can repeat the parts you like. Photograph the piece close up and from normal viewing distance. This resource concerns hand embroidery or textile art; translating the appearance into a computerized machine design requires separate digitizing decisions.
