Embroidery stitched directly through a vinyl record sleeve. 

12x12x2 inches, framed in acrylic.

     Tattoo you was the first Rolling Stones album that I purchased and it is still one of my favorites. Start me up is probably still my favorite Rolling Stones song. This album started as a special commission, it was an album that my friend's father had left her when he passed away. She wanted to commemorate it as a piece of art. The imagery is an illustration of a tattooed woman with full face tattoos. I started by adding red glitter appliqué to the background and silver glitter appliqué as the face. I then stitched over 100,000 stitches on top of the fabric appliqués to complete the face. The glitter of the fabrics really add to the glamour of this piece.

Shipping calculated at checkout.

The albums take up to 8 hours to embroider and can contain over 200,000 stitches. The series is created and designed to be hung together so you can add to your installation wall as you discover new pieces I create. Each of the albums comes with a signed certificate and is framed in acrylic and measures 12" x 12" x 2".
