Artist notes

fan art of sabrina carpenter’s short n sweet concert intro. this was as much about experimenting with beaded embroidery as it was about capturing that moment. the pearls cascading down became a way to play with dimensionality and weight in a way flat fabric couldn’t. there’s something satisfying about using tactile materials to honor something you love.
