You may have seen on my IG or Twitter, but I’ve been working on a new beaded painting. This one is 8x8 inches and will likely take well over 100 hours to finish.
This work is a heart meditation. I hope you can feel the love that I’m putting into it.
We are settled enough into our new place that I’ve been thinking about starting another beaded painting soon. This prototype is only 6x6” yet took over 100 hrs, so it’s a bit of a commitment. I love spending that much time with a work of art though, slowly watching the vision come alive. When it’s done that experience is over.
Plus I do find the effect of several thousand beads pretty astounding. Each one of these was individually hand-stitched and meticulously adjusted so the thread isn’t visible. I did buy a luneville hook, which could speed things up, but I don’t yet know how to use it. I also love how the stitches on the back of the prototype look, so I’m not totally sure I even want to change techniques.

More commissions! This is for a friend who wants something stately and regal for when their LARP character need to put on their “serious buisness” face. That is the characters coat of arms. It’s gonna be blinging :) also I’m finally going to have an excuse to play with those lovely resin roses!

At the end of every rainbow you can find one of these, smaller rainbows. Scientists are still trying to find the even tinier rainbow at the end of one of these.
Every 100 years, the Dragon of Wood’s mortal body perishes, ready for it to be reborn. Each time this happens, its eyes solidify, and to wear one grants good luck and a closer bond with nature.
