Queen Clementine

Artist

Saskia Wassing

Description

I love to set up still life’s to draw from in my studio. When my husband came home with a huge case of gorgeous clementines, all I could think about was drawing them, just a bit inspired by the Old Masters like Hulsdonck. This piece evolved to include the Queen of Clementines sharing these little orange jewels.The oatmeal linen ground is embroidered freely using a basic domestic sewing machine as a drawing tool, building up the textures, patterns and details.Framed, ready to hang.
