Well, I am leaving this piece now. You never really know when things are ‘done’ they just stop at an interesting point. I have another idea for a piece to do over the winter months and hope to push the boundaries of experimenting with embroidery and oil still further with the next one. Need to address stretching the canvas again and getting ready to sew. I like to do this in daylight for choosing the oil colour as well as the threads. If I work in the evening with artificial light, it can affect so much in subtle ways.
