Mounting Three-Dimensional Objects
ARTISTIC TOUCHES TO EMBROIDERED WORKS
The three-dimensional objects found in this series will truly make your art pieces
unique. The beauty of these dimensional add-ons is the ability to decide what
you want to incorporate upon the finishing steps of the artwork. Simply create
the backgrounds you want to showcase first, deciding on the 3D elements later.
"I like to lay out all of my backgrounds first and then decide where my
dimensional elements will go. They are simple to add, just apply a bit of glue
from your glue gun and press them into place. There is no right amount to add
to the finished pieces, it is all a matter of personal taste. I like to imagine real
butterflies flying into the room and randomly landing on the pieces," Wilson
adds. Whether you are adding the paper cut shapes with lace flowers, the
embroidered free standing butterflies, or a silhouette over a background, adding
a dimensional touch to your works are sure to add a whole new level of artistic
creativity and professional finish.
