Growth Mindset -15x17 framed mixed media neuro art piece
'Growth Mindset' pays homage to taking care of ourselves through our connection to nature and staying open to growth and change. The tree represents reaching for the sun, stretching out its branches and continuing to grow and change through life. My tree brain started out as the design for one of my Brilliant Brain Pins and then became a coloring page in my Brilliant Brain Coloring Book, and finally I couldn't help but stitch it up. The thread painting technique used in the stitching is very dense and holds a multitude of green colors, with the roots, trunk and branches stitched in a brown thread satin stitch. Cotton thread on canvas. I'll include a free Tree pin in your package so you can keep the imagery with you all day long.
It took a very long time to complete the stitching. See the last two photos for in process shots. Once the embroidery was completed, I stretched it onto an 8x10 set of stretcher bars and painted the background with acrylic paint. This piece called for a luxurious wooden frame and I found the perfect cherry wood frame. It is wired in the back for immediate hanging and the full framed piece measures 15x17. Ships free insured priority mail anywhere in the U.S. and internationally with an additional shipping fee. Get in touch with me for a precise quote on international shipping.
Note - this is a one of a kind piece. The review you will find on this listing is for a similar piece - 'Summer Blooms' that now hangs in the office of clinical professor at a medical school in the U.S.
