A Stitch in Time, 12x24 Original Fluid Acrylic on Gallery‑Wrapped Canvas (Unframed, Finished Edges) – Embrace the Unknown Series – Theresa Henderson (2022)
$0.00
Delicate threads of crimson lace through linen‑white fields, mending moments as paint meets purpose. Henderson floods the canvas with a creamy neutral, then draws a needle‑fine line of deep red across the still‑wet surface. With a stylus, she loops the pigment back on itself, creating a serpentine embroidery that sinks slightly, bonding old layer to new.
Along the stitch’s edge, tiny rose‑gold cells bloom—knots in the visual fabric—while faint shadows of taupe hint at previous wear. Despite its gentle palette, the piece vibrates with urgency, echoing the proverb it’s named for: small repairs made now prevent greater unraveling later. A Stitch in Time becomes both caution and comfort, celebrating maintenance as a quiet, loving art.
