IT. IS. DONE. "Bee Beard" - 9"x9" framed - cotton floss, seed beads, metal wire coil, and reclaimed plastic on cotton muslin. . I've been working on this piece for a while now and I've finally finished today. This is part of my APIS body of work about bees. You can see this piece in person at @delinquentgallery and @tattookaiju in December. . Big thanks to my cousin @dboygoode for being my model! . . . #bees #bee #beebeard #beard #embroidery #art #embroideryinstaguild #embroideryart #embroideryartist #embroiderydesign #ampersand #goldwork #beading #reclaimedmaterials #apis #portrait #embroideryportraits #beehive #swarm #needlework #modernembroidery #embroideryartistsoninstagram #fineart #artistsoninstagram (at East Bardstown, Kentucky) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpxLJYQBLMA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rktdexrs3nsh
