Le Barroux Rooftops (Saskia Wassing)

This work is a stitched drawing made from sketches I did while in the Provence village of Le Barroux, France. I loved seeing all the clay rooftops, chimneys, streets and greenery across the landscape. I tried to capture something of the magnificent view that inspired me from the top of the hill. White organza and collaged silks are embroidered freely with colourful threads using a basic domestic sewing machine as my drawing tool. Framed in a contemporary white wood 12”x 14” frame, ready to hang.
