#urCOLOR: resilience

Not your grandmother’s needlework.

Imagine a newly paved parking lot. A crack forms. A dandelion seed takes root, eventually growing into a bright yellow orb amidst the blackness. This dandelion symbolizes nature’s resilience.

This art pays tribute to that dandelion and to you. It serves as a reminder to you of your inner strength and resilience. You matter and can endure challenges like a global pandemic, personal losses, and oppressive systems.

Like the dandelion, rise and shine brightly. Remember your power and resilience.

The piece has two sides: the “outside” with a cross-stitch pattern represents what the world sees, while the “inside” symbolizes the unseen, deeper connections within. Made with craft store yarn on construction netting.

EVERY STITCH WAS DONE BY THE ARTIST.
