This is the image I started with and decided to use mixed media and hand-embroider on top a chaotic web of stitches.  

This worked well because the colours are eye catching and contrasting and way the stitch is almost alive and concealing her face. This gives the chaos effect and the order is the photos beneath. I also like how the focal point is the bright hazel eye which is surrounded by a vivid red.  

I also like how this one conceals the face in sections and the layered threads give depth to the photo, I like how the face seems trapped and encases in the weaves of embroidery.
