Rosa Andreeva is an incredibly talented artist from Moscow who makes the most realistic embroideries. Her pieces transport us into enchanting miniatures scenes full of flowers and textures.
She uses techniques from the 16th century and with the combination of materials and stitching methods she achieves three-dimensional beautiful creations.
Take a look for yourself! It will make you want to learn embroidery.
“Nature has always been my main source of inspiration,” Andreeva said toMy Modern Met website. “That is where I draw all my ideas from. I do not work with templates, as I find it uninteresting. In the beginning, I studied stumpwork and made copies of old pieces, but since 2018 I have been studying in the academic painting studio. This allows me to create my own drawings and incarnate them in my embroidery.”
“What I would like to express in my works is the fragility and singularity of nature,” said Andreeva. “If my embroidery helps somebody to put the flower in the cup or to have a smile, it means my work is complete.”
There is something so peaceful about her artworks.
These pieces would make a beautiful addition to any room of the house!
