Shimunia

Hello! I'm Shimunia.
I've always loved to paint and I was also interested in embroidery, or rather, even threads. In my childhood, I was into cross stitching, but mostly these pieces were large and there was not enough patience to finish them. Plus, everything had to be done very carefully in order to end up with an art piece. Thread to thread, color to color, cross to cross. It was exhausting.
One day I came across a competition on the Internet for the best creative work dedicated to autumn online. I thought I didn't want to paint, what else  I can did? So, I decided to embroider the bouquet of flowers with autumn colors. It was embroidery the size of a button. At that time, I didn't really know anything about artistic embroidery and did everything as I felt. I posted a photo of this work on the social network, and the boy I liked then wrote - "wow! You did it? Very well!". And it inspired me so much that I decided to go on. And my experiments with freestyle embroidery began.
