Colorful Embroideries Are a Visual ‘Pick-Me-Up’ for a Drab Day

If you’re looking for colorful embroidery to brighten your day, then look no further than Kelly Ryan. The Albany-based embroiderer creates vibrant hoop art that’s a happy collision of patterns and texture. Sometimes, Kelly is figurative with her work and embroiders plants. Most of the time, however, she stitches abstract imagery with nature-inspired shapes like leaves that are clad in the likes of magenta, cerulean, and lime green.

Kelly shares both her finished pieces and work in progress via her Instagram. Be sure to follow on there for some welcome color in your feed!
