Using her needle as a sort of a paintbrush, she stitches one knot at a time – an embroidery technique known as French knotting, in which the yarn or thread is knotted around itself.  “I discovered myself that the French knot stitch can be done by wrapping thread around the needle,” writes ipnot on her website. “I find this type of stitching to be a lot of fun to do and it is my favorite type of stitch.”

“I choose a thread of my own preference from 500 different-colored embroidery threads,” she adds. “As in the art of stipple painting, I use my needle like a paint brush and I stitch one knot at a time.”

Ipnot’s passion for embroidery began early on. “I have spent my childhood surrounded by very creative and crafty people who have inspired me,” she explained. “I was drawn to embroidery because my grandmother used to do embroidery and made it look very relaxing and enjoyable. So I tried it and I enjoyed it myself.”

According to her, the work that goes into each piece doesn’t actually feel like work. “Rather, it feels like a hobby since I am having fun,” she concludes.

Her subject, more often than not, is food. “Food carries memory and culture. It tells our stories,” explains Avery on her website. “I love to draw, I love food, so I thought why not try using thread as a medium and combine the things I love and am interested in,” she added in an interview with Dark Yellow Dot.

“I have developed a process that I know works for me in my creative process,” she went on to explain. “Depending on the piece I’m working on will vary the process. For my bigger plates of food I cook the dish, compose the food for the correct photo, and then take many photos to capture the food in its best light and composition. The other approach I take is to make a colored sketch for a photo I have taken or a combination of photos to create the best image ready to stitch.” She then draws a very basic sketch on fabric and changes it as she goes along.

“I’m always thinking of new ideas and yet there is not enough time to do them all,” admitted the artist. “My next big focus is on raw food. The key to the next project will be about composition. I’m always excited to start new projects.”
