At Bird & Mole, we specialise in creating personalised embroidered artwork that captures the essence of your memories in a single, elegant line. Just as Picasso revolutionised 20th-century art by distilling subjects down to their most essential forms, our embroidered line drawing portraits turn treasured photos into minimalist works of art, crafted through the precision of modern embroidery.

From Photo to Embroidery: Customised Line Drawing Portraits
While inspired by Picasso’s approach to line drawings, Bird & Mole brings its own vision to line art embroidery. Picasso’s style, marked by fluid, unbroken lines, evokes powerful emotions and tells entire stories within a single, continuous stroke. Our embroidered pieces draw on this technique to create bespoke line art that’s both personal and timeless—perfect for adding a subtle yet meaningful touch to any home.
From Photo to Art: Unique Home Décor and Personalised Gifts
Creating a line art embroidery begins with the heart of what we do: transforming a cherished photo into a personalised piece of art. Here’s how it works:
Photo Selection: It all begins with a photo that holds special meaning—perhaps a wedding day dance, a quiet moment, or a beloved pet. Every line in the embroidery will reflect the photo’s emotion and essence.
Line Art Transformation: Using our artistic eye, we simplify the photo into a line drawing, capturing the key shapes, expressions, and details that make it unique. Our goal is to find the elegance within simplicity, balancing detail with minimalism for a truly striking effect.
Digital Embroidery Magic: We bring this artistic line art to life with Digital embroidery technology. This method ensures every stitch is precise and faithful to the line art design, blending old-world craftsmanship with today’s advanced technology. The result? A meticulously stitched piece that beautifully echoes the original image.
Modern Embroidered Wall Art for Every Space
Our line art embroidery pieces are designed to be displayed. Framed or frameless, each piece adds a sophisticated, modern touch to any space. Bird & Mole’s line art embroidery goes beyond décor—it’s a reflection of moments, people, and emotions, captured and preserved through thread.

Bird & Mole: Personalised Art, Created Just for You
Our line art embroidery isn’t just a nod to artistic inspiration; it’s a collaboration with you to bring your memories into a new form of art. By blending timeless design principles with the precision of digital embroidery, Bird & Mole creates pieces that are not only deeply personal but also lasting.
As Picasso once stripped art to its simplest lines to capture the heart of his subjects, we too, at Bird & Mole, strive to encapsulate life’s most meaningful moments with clarity and elegance. In every thread, we stitch not just a likeness but an expression—a memory transformed into art, made for your space and your story.
