When you hear the word "embroidery," there's often the connotation of something that's homemade and simple with elegant imagery. Artist Daniel Kornrumpf, however, has taken embroidery to the next level.
Rather than stitching "Home Sweet Home" or images of birds and flowers, Kornrumpf has created portraits of people. Each piece was painstakingly hand-stitched, and you can really appreciate the detail put into each piece. The details of the beard on a man, the reflection and the glare on worn glasses all show the amount of time Kornrumpf has put into his work.
