Icon Bead Embroidery Kit on Art Canvas "St. Artemy"
Description
“St. Artemy” is a warrior in patterned armour with a spear in his hand.
What the picture shows
The figure is shown to the waist, with dark hair, a short beard and a level gaze. The armour is worked in golden-brown beads with a small diamond pattern and applied plates across the chest. Over it hangs a dark violet cloak, with pink cloth showing at the belt. His right hand holds a long spear shaft raised vertically through the whole icon, his left is lowered. The halo is gold, the ground cream with an embossed scroll. Violet with gold is an unusual pairing for a warrior icon, and it sets this piece apart in the row. The beads fill the armour, the cloak, the shaft and the halo, while the face, the hands and the ground stay printed on the canvas.

The vertical 230×300 mm sheet leaves a margin around the figure, so the work never looks crowded. It is easiest to start with the large colour fields of the clothing and leave the small accents — the crown, the cross, the border — until the hand is used to the size of the beads. The moulding in the photograph is shown for reference only — it is not in the kit.
