Russian Artist Pushes Embroidery To Its Limits, Making It Look Like Paint

I can barely sew a button...

Wow, check out Natalia Margulis. Her work makes this look like child's play. Hers is with very fine threads and thousands of small stitches. Look her up. You won't believe it.

Hello Vera. My name is Kerstin Zettmar. it is nice to see someone is during paintings with yarn, like I have been doing for the past 40 years. Here is one of my pieces. Some of the work I do is quite large. You can see more at www.kerstinzettmarart.com me-and-At-...1cb050.jpg

gorgeous, the light within the work!

I would love to buy this one

fantastic!

Texture and varied colors beautiful!

I've been wanting to buy one of these for years but cannot find a legit link

waw amazing

This looks a lot like the Brazilian Embroidery that my Mo used to do....3 dimensional flowers, etc. Sooo pretty. Beautiful work.

Starry evening

this is so powerful

Спасибо за такую красоту! Как же научиться так вышивать?

And these works look so small! Really talented

Stunning!

Those are pretty scary clouds!

Are any of these in a calendar? More ppl could enjoy.

I could literally cry out of joy seeing these! These works of yours are so beautiful..it melts my heart!

This one's my favourite.

Incredible focus and details...

Dynamic reflection of the horizon on the water (creek or winding river)

Purple, a lot of purple... I love purple.

The way you capture movement and then get that message across with yarn as your medium is f*ing mind blowing!!

Yes. Starry starry night

This makes me think about how much we ruin the earth with plastic and stuff, and I want to save the earth just to get a real life photo to look like this, and not all gray and stuff.

What an incredible representation of passion

Just... wow.

Not only does it have depth but it looks as though the river is rushing quickly down stream!! Increadible work my friend!

Easily my absolute favourite...

Okay these are all my favorites. I can't pick just one.

It looks as if the river was about to flow out of the frame. A great sense of perspective and choice of colors.

Talented artist!

is anyone else just gaping at them, speechless?

Beautiful they all are!

Beautiful

Gorgeous! Beautiful pieces,. I love this tree ❤️

This is my favorite. It's amazing that so much work is constrained by such a small space.

It looks windy, creative!

The sky looks like a time-lapse video of the stars!! Awesome!

This woman has ledgebdary pictures or scenes, Man I wish I was rich so I could buy one. They a exquisite !!!

Between the trees and the sky, this one is really different and REALLY beautiful!

The lighting is amazing

I don't know how you do the clouds....but they all look like actual smoke rising from the embroidery

Gorgious colours.

There's a blogger who lives in high mountains who posts sunset pictures frequently. This looks JUST like them, the stunning reds and golds lighting the clouds and reflecting in lakes below. Stunning work!

my fav

Love the backgrounds you use to enhance your work

There’s a sense of whimsy in several of these
