For more than 5 years now, Beautiful Bizarre Magazine has been keeping an attentive eye out on the rising contemporary artistic movement that is embroidery art.
We have had the pleasure of working with many incredible artists – for the magazine itself, our web blog, and have shared their work across our 950,000+ strong social media network. Embroidery art is a fascinating medium, connecting many different techniques and styles, and opening new ways for traditional art, fashion, design and installation art to connect.
So we are thrilled to share with you a list of artists whose work is truly unique, elegant, luxurious, fun and, always incredibly creative. Their creations range from incorporating embroidery with traditional art mediums to adding stunning detail to clothing and the creation of landscapes and incredibly crafted portraits and figurative thread art!!
This is not an exhaustive list by any means, and it is definitely not in any particular order!
It includes internationally acclaimed artists as well as fascinating and brilliant emerging artists who deserve more attention. You may note that there are some embroidery artists who are conspicuously missing, this because we have not included artists with no Instagram presence, because as you will see all the artists mentioned below are linked to their Instagram accounts so you can quickly and easily follow them too.
Of course, there are many more talented embroidery artists out there we didn’t find yet. If you are an embroidery art designer or know one that you feel should be included in our next list, please comment below. We are always in search of exciting new creatives!
Finally, the Beautiful Bizarre Magazine Art Prize is accepting Embroidery Art entries to give all the amazing embroidery artists around the world the recognition they deserve! The 2019 Prize will also have separate Category Awards for Traditional [painting, drawing, collage, embroidery art etc], Sculpture, Digital Art and Photography, so let all your creative friends know! Enter today for your chance to receive global exposure + share in over US$20,000 in cash and prizes!
If you are an Embroidery artist and want to build up more of a following for your creations on Instagram then you may want to consider using companies like Growthsilo, which provides a managed service that gives people real Instagram followers and not bots, like most of the other growth websites offer. Increasing a following helps to spread awareness for your brand and give you more support to continue to create amazing pieces of art.

November 18, 2020 at 6:52 pmHi Beautiful Bizarre.,Thank you for publishing the works of art of embroidery stitches., Before this time, I had no opportunity to create a show. Because I have to teach embroidery to many of my students.
Today, a large piece of embroidery art like I have created.,I do not want it to be lost.
When you are ready to update, I hope you will consider my art embroidered., view on my website (www.NingKorat.com)

February 2, 2021 at 1:38 amHi Beautiful Bizarre! Thanks for this amazing post, I’ve followed so many of them. I am also a Black woman embroidery artist. I focus on celebrating Black hair via thread, both often disregarded as respected art.
