A very, very long experiment

I must confess sometimes
I do google for texture
ideas to draw.
I found this Rug during
search for 15th century
fashion for ideas.
And I found myself having
this need to trace the
detail of the fabric.
It doesn't or won't end up
look like the exact rug yet
I found myself spending
over 8 hours tracing every
part of the rug.
Best source of ideas I often
find are through Museums
Online or Historical site because
most of the most beautiful
textures are found in history yet I did also find this incredibly site I wish I had bookmarked
of this artist who uses needle and thread to create incredible detailed images.
Too tired to find it right now.
