Tulips have a special way of filling a room. They are simple in form, but full of colour, direction and movement. In this embroidery kit, Ole Kortzau has created a tall and narrow wall piece, where the tulips grow up through the picture surface with long stems, red flower heads and light traces of colour around them. Tulips - wall piece - Ole Kortzau (OK) is an embroidery design with a clear sense of spring, but also with enough warmth to be displayed all year round.<\/p>\n
The motif shows several tulips in red and orange shades. The flowers are placed at different heights, giving the picture a lively rhythm. Some tulips stand as clear, closed flower heads, while others are more open and almost move towards the edge of the motif. This gives the embroidery a light and natural composition, as if the tulips have been captured in the middle of their growth.<\/p>\n
The red colours range from deep, darker tones to clear orange and yellow highlights. The colour shifts give the flowers fullness and make them feel alive without making the motif heavy. The light background is not neutral, but has fine pink, yellow and warm shades, lying like a soft light around the tulips. This gives the wall piece a painterly expression, where the flowers do not simply stand in front of the background, but become part of the whole colour atmosphere of the picture.<\/p>\n
The green stems and leaves are long, slender and gently curved. They draw the eye up through the narrow format and emphasise the height of the motif. At the bottom, the green forms come together with orange and yellow strokes, creating a sense of growth, leaves and movement.<\/p>\n
This embroidery kit is embroidered with Danish Flower Thread on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The finished wall piece measures 14 x 33.5 cm. The tall, narrow format makes the motif well suited to a narrow wall, a gallery wall, an entrance hall or a place where a small, vertical point of colour is desired.<\/p>\n
The format is an important part of the motif\u2019s expression. The tulips are allowed to reach upwards, and a fine balance is created between the flower heads at the top and the slender stems below. As a finished embroidery, the motif has a decorative lightness that works well in both modern and classic interiors.<\/p>\n
Danish Flower Thread gives the colours a soft and natural expression. The red, orange, yellow and green tones come to life, while still preserving the matte textile quality that suits cross stitch and linen beautifully.<\/p>\n
Haandarbejdets Fremme is known for embroidery kits where materials, colours and design are carefully balanced. In this motif, classic linen, Danish Flower Thread and a strong botanical design language come together. This creates an embroidery design that has both the calm of needlework and an artistic, colourful expression.<\/p>\n
With this motif, Ole Kortzau has created tulips that are not heavy or detailed in a traditional botanical way. Instead, it is the movement, colour and atmosphere of the flower that carry the embroidery. Tulips - wall piece - Ole Kortzau (OK) is therefore an embroidery kit for those who want a smaller wall piece with warm floral colours, elegant height and a clear sense of spring and light.<\/p>\n\n
