Embroidering a Kangnai flower brings eternal beauty to time

Between the threads of silk weaving, I will turn my respect for life and maternal love into the illustrations of the "Embroidered Carnation" series. When soft silk meets three-dimensional stitches, when the fragrance of carnations condenses into everlasting patterns, each piece becomes a specimen of time, carrying delicate and long-lasting emotions. At this moment, I invite you to bend down and listen to the gentle whispers hidden in the embroidery stitches.

Expanding on the "Embroidered Carnation" series of illustrations, the first thing that catches the eye is the three-dimensional flowers blooming on silk. Unlike flat painting, embroidery has a unique texture that makes every petal feel like it's breathing. The painter uses silk thread as a pen and layers gradient pink embroidery thread to simulate the natural folds of carnation petals - the outer petals are outlined with loose long needles to create a stretched arc, while the inner layer is decorated with fine seed embroidery to embellish the stamens. The interweaving of varying shades of silk thread creates a soft luster for the flowers under light and shadow, like fresh flowers with dew in the morning.

The exquisite application of needlework endows carnations with unique vitality. Under the technique of "layered embroidery", the petals present a subtle transparency, as if the texture of the inner layer can be seen through the surface layer; The edge of the flower bud outlined by "Pan Jin Embroidery", with golden threads winding on the silk like flowing sunlight, forms a sharp contrast with the soft pink color; The leaves treated with 'loose embroidery' have natural transitions of light and dark green threads, and there seem to be traces of gentle breeze brushing between the veins. Every thread's rise and fall is like injecting soul into a carnation, giving flat illustrations a temperature within reach.

Different embroidery materials add a sense of layering to the picture. On the plain white soft satin, light pink carnations appear elegant and refined; In the beige burlap background, the flowers outlined by the same color embroidery thread add a touch of rustic warmth; On the silk with pearl luster, the carnations embroidered with silver threads seem to be soaked in moonlight, emitting a mysterious and noble aura. The clever combination of these materials and needlework makes each illustration a unique artistic masterpiece.

As the universal "mother's flower", carnations carry the most delicate emotions of humanity. Legend has it that the carnation first bloomed at the place where the Virgin Mary shed tears for Jesus. Its pure white petals were dyed pink by the tears, becoming a symbol of maternal love and gratitude. In the "Embroidered Carnations" series, each flower is like an unsent love letter, embroidering indescribable emotions into the stitches.

Pink carnations represent eternal maternal love, and the layered petals in the illustration resemble a mother's meticulous care; The red carnation symbolizes passionate love and respect, and the specially bolded stitches during embroidery seem to express passionate emotions; The white carnation symbolizes pure love, and the artist uses the finest silk thread to outline the outline, making the flower appear ethereal and holy. These different colored carnations connect precious moments in life about family, friendship, and self-care.
