Core concept: Cherry blossoms have always reminded me of my childhood – on my way to school with my parents I would always be greeted by them in the spring. I would love to represent that warm nostalgic feeling through this project by embroidering a cherry blossom tree on a printed picture of my parents. I believe that using materials such as embroidery threads would capture the warm homey feeling that I am trying to convey. Also by embroidering individual petals on the tree and flying off the tree, I think I will be able to illustrate a more dynamic image.
Materials: Printed canvas, embroidery threads and needles (mostly brown and pink tones)
Timeline: 11/30 print image at tartan ink, 12/2 sketch out tree and petals on canvas, 12/3 – 12/9 embroider
