Ingrid Bee

"Each Canvas is handmade in every aspect. I will often plan out the initial design in my sketchbook. I then manipulate and distress the pieces of canvas before overstitching them with freehand embroidery. I use thick threads, silks and yarns to create depth and extra definition. When I feel that I have applied enough detail and have achieved the final effect, I will begin to stitch the individual pieces of canvas together and hand stretch the final pieces of canvas over a wooden stretcher.

Once the canvas is completely stretched, I begin to re-create new textures and reliefs onto the canvas using various moulding materials and pastes – this also defines the holes created by the embroidery. The final stage is the application of paint, which I will build up in numerous layers."

Ingrid’s work is available in a large variety of sizes and stunning colour combinations.
