If you’ve wondered why I haven’t posted recently, it’s because a well-deserved vacation had been in order for some time. There truly is nothing like beadweaving to the sound of waves crashing on the shore, palm fronds rustling in the wind, exotic birds chirping sweetly, and the crowing and clucking
of the ubiquitous population of roosters and hens on the island of Kauai. Lush greenery and warm weather certainly lends a vivid contrast to the Ansel Adams black and white of a Midwest Winter! I’ve been working on a series of geometric warped squares and exploring pattern design. These components will become wonderful, lightweight earrings. I have been inspired by the webs of the island garden spider with its X-shaped legs and black and yellow markings. The bright colors of tropical plants feel so right for the advent of spring! I’ll be working on color charts and tutorials for several new designs…stay tuned!
