I like what some artists are doing with found photos and added embroidery. But, I'd rather work with photos taken by my father, than pictures of people I don't even know. So as not to upset my siblings, I'm forced to work on pictures of myself - not because I'm an egocentric person, like some people I won't name, who should not be running the country.
