An embroidery piece in a wooden hoop. Multicolored “layers” or stripes representing a cross section of the earth, are broken up haphazardly by “faults” and green plumes of “magma”. At the very top of the piece, small green beads represent lava, and tiny brass beads represent ash against a black background. It’s called “Yaggy’s Dream”

Levi Walter Yaggy’s grand illustration of the mechanisms of geology, in cross-section. Different layers of rock are rendered in hues of green, blue, pink, & yellow. It shows cracks and faults in the layers, plumes of magma intruding through to form volcanoes and calderas, and clouds & ash in a blue sky.

Next up in my #ApartmentDoorGallery is an embroidery piece based on the work of 19th century science illustrator, Levi Walter Yaggy.

I wanted to experiment with red shades & textures, so I made this piece. Just in time for the Lunar New Year 🧧! I hung it on my door today as the third piece of the year in my exclusive Door Gallery exhibition 🙃

A Christmas tree embroidered onto black fabric in a wooden hoop. I used a fluffy gold thread for the garland, red glass beads as ornaments, and a brass filigree flower as a tree-topper

For anyone wondering, this is the Christmas tree embroidery that ended up being the inaugural exhibit in my #ApartmentDoorGallery
