Like a seal or a crest, the golden-yellow sunflower is brightly held by graphically contrasting deep-red amaranth and leafy sprigs. It's the supreme of Summer rendered in florals! The fullness of the season can be remembered and enjoyed all year round.

The artist makes an effort to reuse hoops, backing fabric, and embroidery floss found at local flea markets and thrift stores lending an extra element of uniqueness. This is recycling at its best!

Emilee Harper has been creating art as long as she can remember. The daughter of a quilter, she learned to sew at around 6-years old. She moved to Maine from her home state of South Carolina to attend Maine College of Art to study printmaking. She loved the process of layering, playing with color and texture, and eventually incorporating fiber into her work.

Emilee discovered Midcoast and fell in love with the natural beauty. Her work is inspired by the world around her. Flowers and fungi, stars and sea, are repeated themes in her embroidery pieces.
