Textile Artist Creates Travel Snapshots With Needle and Thread

Every time Teresa Lima travels around the world, she transforms in art her vision of the surrounding panorama with needle and thread. By checking her series Sew Wanderlust, it easy to see that the talented artist decorates by stitching her detailed canvases visioned on places visited by her. This magnificent way of preserving memories lets her enjoy her surroundings.

Lim spends a huge amount of hours in front of sceneries and embroidering allows her to connect with the nature while the scene unfolds. Isn’t it perfect? As a lazy penguin I prefer photos (to remember places) because I can neither stich nor draw. “H/T”: frankiemagazine
