Norfolk Grasses embroidery on canvas with oil bar

Have been working into this piece with oil bars recently and continuing to sew into selected areas of the canvas. The oil bars are great because they are so chunky you can’t be too precious about the mark making which I really like. So you get the richness of oil paint together with the drawing aspect which I also like. I sometimes don’t like to share work as it goes along because sometimes it makes me stop and I have to guard the gold. But this time I seem to be ok and am just in the midst and am keeping going!
