Embroidered Artwork - Navigate by the Stars - Centaurus

Centaurus

The Centaurus constellation, prominent in the southern hemisphere, has historically served as a vital celestial guide for sailors navigating the southern oceans, with its bright stars aiding in determining direction and position at sea. MJ (the artist) spent 2 years sailing in the Southern Hemisphere, and knows this constellation well.

Each piece is completely unique, and made here in Ireland.

Embroidered Hoop Art

Nautical and Adventure-Themed Hand Embroideries

Transform your space with exquisite hand-embroidered hoop art. Each piece is a unique work of art, meticulously crafted using a beech hoop, unbleached cotton or linen as a base, and a blend of silky cotton threads and bright embroidery floss. Some designs include an acrylic painted fabric base, adding an extra layer of texture and colour, while others incorporate left-over wool from the wool wear collection for added depth and character. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind artwork - no two are the same!

Inspired by my life aboard my boat, these embroideries capture the spirit of the sea and the joy of adventure, expeditions and exploring!
