After the Applause
When the lights go out and the audience has gone home, the smile is the last thing to remain. Stitched together from fragments of costume, paint and memory, this figure exists somewhere between performer and person—caught in the quiet that follows the final curtain.

An original mixed media embroidery combining drawing, paint and sculptural stitching. Layers of padding are stitched beneath the surface to create a three-dimensional portrait,

The Moss Collector (The Gentle One)
One of the Hollow Folk. Where others see fallen leaves, broken feathers, forgotten buttons, and scraps of moss, the Collector sees memories worth keeping. Nothing abandoned by the forest is ever truly lost while they are near.

This is an original character from a world I have imagined. Each piece in the series is created using mixed media and sculptural embroidery, with layers of padding stitched beneath the fabric to create a three-dimensional form. Rather than simply decorating the surface, the embroidery becomes part of each character’s anatomy and identity.

The Elder is believed to be the last surviving member of the Hollow Folk. His face bears the marks of centuries spent beneath the forest canopy, where moss, scars, and memory have become impossible to separate.

This is an original character design, created from a world I have imagined. Made using mixed media and sculptural embroidery, layers of padding have been stitched beneath the surface to create a three-dimensional effect, allowing the embroidery to become part of the character’s form rather than simply decorating it.
