Video: The art of painting with holes

As a rule, all the most unusual works of art are born completely by accident. I can't believe that a person can seriously think about making the same mini-sculptures from crayons. Most likely, the person was simply having fun because of nothing to do, and suddenly noticed that something interesting was coming out … And off we go.
A completely different story happened with Heather Smith Jones, who at one time became interested in studying the traditional art of the Australian aborigines, in particular, their "dot painting". As a result, for more than seven years, Heather has been creating unusual pictures, "painted" with … an ordinary sewing needle.
The principle of "drawing" is clear and simple - one hole, two, five, twenty-five, and then a lot of holes that are grouped into an ornament, or become letters. On the one hand, what could be simpler than such creativity? On the other hand, try it yourself!
Personally, I believe that such work requires tremendous perseverance, attentiveness and iron nerves - not everyone will be able to spend several hours, measuredly poking needles of different sizes and thicknesses into a sheet of paper, at the same time making sure not to make a single extra hole, otherwise it will break the whole pattern. Something akin to cross-stitching, but more delicate, fragile and … monotonous. But when the work is ready, all you have to do is shake your head and smile admiringly. Of course, the craftswoman has a website where you can look into her gallery.
