A Journey Into Artful Embroidery

Welcome to Irene Schlesinger Artwork, a gallery where each thread tells a story. Nestled in the heart of Novato, California, my gallery showcases the beauty and intricacy of embroidered art. As the founder and principal artist, my journey began with a passion for transforming traditional embroidery into contemporary masterpieces.

From a young age, I was captivated by the endless possibilities of embroidery. This fascination led me to specialize in creating original and unique embroidered artworks. Each piece in my gallery is a testament to my dedication to this art form, blending classic techniques with a modern twist.

In 2020, I authored "Artful Embroidery on Canvas," published by CT Publications, to share my insights and techniques with fellow art enthusiasts. My mission with this book was to ignite a spark of creativity in readers, encouraging them to view embroidery through an artistic lens. This work is not just a guide but an invitation to explore and express oneself through the vibrant world of embroidery.

As you browse my gallery, you'll find a collection that speaks volumes about my journey as an artist. Each artwork is a piece of my soul, stitched with precision and imbued with a story. I invite you to immerse yourself in this unique form of artistry and perhaps find a piece that resonates with your own artistic journey.
