Tela stampata per ricamo con perline (senza perline) «Il magico albero della vita»

“Magic Tree of Life” — a stylised tree whose crown curls into a great spiral, laid out in dotted strokes.

What the picture shows

The trunk rises from the base, widening towards the roots, and glows in warm orange, red and gold. The crown — green and emerald, flecked with yellow and pink — swirls anticlockwise and dissolves into a blue vortex that fills the right side of the background. The lower ground is deep blue and violet, the upper part light turquoise. The whole picture is assembled from thousands of separate dots, like a mosaic, and narrow greyish-lilac strips run down the sides like a frame. Coverage is partial: beads follow those strokes in rows across the whole field, while the painted ground shows between them and holds the overall tone. Neither the trunk nor the crown has a firm outline: the form is assembled purely from the accumulation of dots.
