Embroidery by Stephen Sollins
This artist has a really cool process for his embroidery works:
He “unworks” cross-stitch samplers, and then re-works the ground fabric in the same number of stitches and colors as the original composition (a ghostly outline remains).

I really appreciate both the aesthetic and the process of his work.
