Textile Art Brooch - Portraits of the three graces - No 2 Thalia

Description

Listed here is the second brooch of my 'Three Graces Series'
They were called the joyful ones, the charities, the goddesses of feasts & dance.
They were said to be the ever youthful companions and attendants to the goddess Aphrodite.

This one is Thalia, meaning: She who brings flowers, plenty, luxury and abundance.

She is beautifully detailed and lavishly stitched.
I draw the faces using the sewing needle as a pencil, this takes a lot of skill and patience, in an effort to creat a unique expression for each portrait.

These little ladies are quite small but pack a lot of drama!
Measuring only 6.5x4.cm approx.
Measurment not including the hanging beads.

Each brooch has a pin back fastner on the back.
Alternatively each may be framed for maximum impact!
The second photo shows one of the sold graces as a work in progress and another in a small box frame, this is just to give you an idea of size and show you how they may look.
