Hand Art

Hands reflect who we are, our personality, they give clues about our lifestyle, our age, our interests.
We notice fingernails, coloured or not, muscular hands, bony, arthritic, calloused, smooth.
We notice the shapes of our fingers, the size of our hands.
We notice if they are clenched or open, pointing or gesticulating.
​We notice lifelines, veins and age spots.


Hands carry a beauty that reflects our soul.
Capture that beauty in a piece of embroidered art and hold onto those hands forever.

" I received this remarkable work from Anne Warburton. Those are my hands in the picture. Anne photographed me playing and then worked her magic to create this contemplative and deeply personal rendering. It will have a treasured place in my studio." Bev, Pianist
I will work with you to decide on a pose for the hands, background, and colours. I can work from photos you provide (high quality needed) or can arrange to meet with the subject to take photos. 

Possible poses:
  • hands resting
  • ​holding a soccer ball
  • yoga mudras​
  • linking fingers
  • thumbs up
  • palm to palm
  • holding a Timmies
  • Live Long & Prosper
  • writing, stitching
  • high five
Stitching will be done in one colour in an outline form.​
The background can be on paper, fabric, painted, or I can include items of your choice that you supply (originals or photocopies). Stitching will be in a colour that contrasts with the background. 
  • photographs
  • maps
  • copy of birth certificate
  • photocopy of important papers
  • piece of clothing, baby quilt
  • e​tc.
​Name of the hand owner(s) and year will be added to the work.
​
Please allow 4-6 weeks for completion of the work. 
Completed works may be photographed for advertising purposes - no names will be attached to the work.

​The hands below were all stitched as part of a celebration of creative women over the age of 75.
