I started with some embroidery supplies, a photo of a dog I knew and got stuck straight into making my first pet portrait embroidery hoop for a Christmas gift. And oh my word... I loved every moment I spent making it!
I kept practicing for a while and have gradually improved over the past 2 years. Now I do this as part of my business, The Artist's Lab.
An embroidered pet portrait is a quirky gift for pet owners who absolutely adore their furbaby! Check out my website below if you are interested in commissioning me.
Hope you will enjoy my work!

Another great job on the realistic eyes. It's amazing how you get fur and shiny, smooth eyes using the same materials.

These are so amazingly beautiful. You are so talented and you must have a really beautiful heart to put so much love and tenderness into each piece. Well done. Please keep it up.👍😊💖
I want to run my fingers over them all to feel the texture. Very nice work! I wouldn't know how to embroider a flower, let alone something so detailed.
I just got off a "horrible tattoos" article; it's refreshing to come here & see REAL artwork. These are all so beautiful, and so obviously created with love.
Just started doing embroidery and thread painting is my next goal. Work like this inspires me! Thanks. It's beautiful.
Your work is fantastic! As someone who has embroidered as a hobby since I was 12 (I'm 66 now), I think it is harder to embroider this type of detail that to paint it. Threads of different varieties can be hard to work with, but yield great results. The texture that threads give is very tactile as opposed to paint.
