This unique embroidered artwork is developed directly from a life drawing and individually handmade using freehand machine embroidery with pre-loved fabrics.

In these thread drawings Juliet explores her personal experience of being a woman: empowerment, strength, sensuality, self love, vulnerability and our connections with others. This piece was made during Covid19 lockdown in response to the pandemic.

Juliet's artistic focus is on exploring the unique expressive potential of thread. Her textile artworks are strongly grounded in her drawing skills, her passion for life drawing and the female form. She uses freehand machine embroidery to to create textile and mixed media artworks that celebrate women and explore themes relating to female identity and experience. She embraces and promotes female diversity, empowerment and body positivity

Juliet says, “I choose to work in thread, using the sewing machine as a drawing tool, as I love the extremely expressive quality of the thread drawn line. All of my pieces begin as pencil/ mixed media drawings on paper, working directly from the life model. In designing the thread drawings, I carefully choose colours, patterns, textures from my large collection of preloved fabrics to convey the emotion, character and atmosphere that I wish to communicate in the piece.”
