Petronella is a self-taught artist, who mostly focuses on the details of buildings and urban elements in their embroidery creations. Henry has a fine arts background and experience as a fashion photographer, and he’s more focused on the color of stitching. They both bring different qualities to the table and perfectly balance each other out.

The majority of the couple’s creations are inspired by the streets of Paris, where they met and fell in love. They also use their embroidery art to commemorate the memories they created in other cities during their travels across Europe.
