Many if us tend to be dismissive of needlepoint stitched only in Tent Stitch. However if you think of it as a stitched equivalent of Seraut’s pointillism you can see how it can be a compelling basis for art.
Annie Helmerick-Louder is Midwestern artist who creates original needlepoint as well as art textiles, drawings and paintings.
Enjoy her lovely creativity in her online gallery.
