Mr X stitch

We had a very interesting lecture today by Jamie Chalmers. Jamie is a male embroider who told us a little about himself and his work, he'd initially started cross stitch as a joke but fell in love with it. He introduced us to many different artist who used cross stitch in their work. Some of the main artists that I'd highlighted and sparked an interest for are, Diem Chau, Mana Morimoto and Jose romussi. He also explained the importance of social media and your blog. It was interesting learning about all the different ways you can get your work out to the world using the internet and sending out one pot that reaches every social media platform.
