Revisiting Adipocere Embroidery

Back in 2015 I had the good fortune of interviewing Josh Melbourne, the brilliant mind behind Adipocre Embroidery. One of the blogs I frequent the most Haute Macarbe recently alerted me to some of the new pieces Josh has been working on. Unsurprisingly they're wonderfully morbid...as always.

I'm lost for what to say right now, but from this image by Mikael Aldo I think a poem will be spawned...once I can find adequate words.

It was Dark Beauty Magazine which led me on the trail of the talented photographer Kelsie Taylor. I'm enchanted - and inspired - by everything to do with this image. From the unimaginably deep green of the trees, to the darkened eyes of the beautiful model.

It's thanks to Dilkabear that I discovered the late realist painter Andrew Wyeth. Making notes for a poem inspired by this stark, unforgettable piece of art.
