The incredible diversity of birds made them a great source of inspiration for artists from different walks of life, including the ones using embroidery as their medium. Jennifer of Bloom and Floss is one of them, and she enjoys using needle and thread to capture the vibrant beauty of birds.
Jennifer has always been drawn to expressing herself creatively but struggled to find a hobby that held her attention until she discovered embroidery.
“Not only is it a wonderful creative outlet that produces beautiful artwork to decorate my home and give as gifts, but the process of stitching brings me such joy. I find myself getting lost in the mindful, almost meditative act of stitching,” she wrote on her Etsy page.
Her brand Bloom and Floss was born out of her love for textile art, and she’s hoping her designs will bring people joy. Her style significantly evolved over the years, and she enjoys capturing flowers, landscapes, and organic shapes full of texture and movement through her embroidery.
Birds are one of many subjects she enjoys exploring, and we’ve seen her capture the beauty of several different species. They’re not the exact replicas of their real-life contra parts but still do a great job encapsulating the vibrant spirit of these fascinating creatures.
