Izziyana Suhaimi

We’ve been seeing a lot of embroidered art as of late but I must say that so far, I’ve been most impressed by Singaporean artist Izziyana Suhaimi‘s work. I can’t get over how skillfully she is able to incorporate ornate embroidery techniques with her own pencil drawings and watercolors, pushing the boundaries of traditional and popular culture. Simply beautiful.

    Very interesting idea to mix the two mediums. Embroidery seems to be gaining in popularity. I just read a post on Design Sponge about another girl who embroiders book jackets and sells them on Etsy.
