BRUSHES

To this art of the color that holds the cartonnier , he associates an other which is the Art Painting.

While tackling this subject one enters another field of the needle art, a known speciality by many practising: to say:

The Needle Painting.

Keep in mind that the Needle Painting is rather a technique of embroidery that one of needlepoint tapestry.
This term in the beginning was applied to the Chinese embroideries.
The technique of realization of these works was undoubtedly imported in the same time than silks to which it was applied.

NEEDLES

Painting with the needle is also an expression to determine a work or the number of colors and their juxtaposition really make think of a painting.

With a certain distance, neither very brought closer nor very distant, the ranges and the stitch used do not allow to really distinguish the limits of each color.

Finally this appelation expresses especially the analogy which one has liked to make for several centuries between on the one hand the embroidery like art using the color and, on the other hand, the painting which is expressed using the same vector.

The only difference holding with the tools: one the needle, the other the brush.
