While sorting through files recently, I came across a photo that I had taken shortly after receiving the long-awaited CGB Volume One. I had just finished my very first attempt at geometric beadwork and was extremely pleased with the end result. I titled the bangle "Moroccan Delight" because the colors and pattern work made me think of painted ceramic tiles one might see while strolling through a market or bazaar in that part of the world. I took several "art shots" of the piece and notice that with winged points facing upwards, the bangle very much resembled a tiny crown. Of course, I had the perfect model lazing about in my studio…introducing the mackerel snapper, Her Royal Highness, Princess Peek-a-Boo!
