I’m Kate, the CEO (Chief Embroidery Officer!) of Kate Hughes Art

 

Stitching makes my heart happy! I love making keepsake pieces of art that can be given as gifts, passed down for generations and treasured forever.

Following college graduation, I settled into a corporate position. However, my creative nature was waning. As a result, I felt called to the meditative practice of embroidery and I taught myself to how to stitch.  I began stitching treasured childhood photo images onto linen fabric. Slowly, I developed my signature "painterly" style.  My creations involve multi-layered, perspective defining thread sculpting techniques.  Hence, my finished works are labeled "thread paintings."   In 2015, I opened a shop on Etsy where I specialize in thread-painted portraits and landscapes.

 

I was honored to be featured in Etsy's Editors' Picks of 2015 and several regional art exhibitions in recent years. I have created commissioned pieces for dozens of clients, including a few celebrities whom I respect and admire. 

 

I love creating custom artwork for my clients. If you're interested in commissioning a custom threadpainting, please visit my Custom Artwork page for more information. I have original artwork available in my shop and you can always send me a note at Kate@KateHughes.biz.  I am excited to create an original, one-of-a-kind, thread-painted art piece for you!

 

Thank you for stopping by!
