A little textile inspiration from my YouTube ‘Meet the Artist’ Collection. Today it features the work of artist Suzy Wright.
Suzy Wright is renowned for her iconic images of people, insects, fruit, flowers and birds created using free machine embroidery. Each piece can use up to 200 coloured threads. Suzy’s CV includes an Internship with Zandra Rhodes and also as a studio assistant for Kaffe Fassett.

Each artwork starts off as a piece of medium weight calico. The large statement pieces feature a fully stitched background turning the piece into a new type of stitched fabric. Each piece can use over 200 threads blending colours and building shades from dark to light.
