Te King comes to his Queen |

Arthur et Guenièvre finally together !
|
|
A few months ago I felt the need to refocus on my values, on what is really essential for me, what feeds my soul and my imagination. I then decided to create what I should undoubtedly have done a long time ago, namely creating my Arthurian Pantheon ...

Last February Guinevere appeared on his throne and certainly Arthur could have followed her closely, but I like to take my time.

The King Arthur now sits beside her on is throne with his Excalibur sword in hand

About Arthur ... Although having taken over the principles of Guinevere's embroidery, this is indeed a new embroidery with quite different difficulties. Arthur’s more warlike stance, his accessories: breastplate, main arm, pauldron, sword, are all metallic pieces whose effect must be rendered without being too present. This is why all these elements are made with silver and gold lamé threads mixed with DMC cottons. The effect is subtle, does not take up all the space to the detriment of the drapes to remain in refinement and elegance.
