My entry in the 2025 Battle of the Beadsmith
A view through flowers
Glass beads and thread
18”x15”
Morning glory flowers, vines, seed pods, buds and leaves created with seed beads. Flowers are woven using peyote and herringbone stitches. The flowers are arranged as if they are grown on a small set of hinged panels. The overall size of the piece is 18”x15”. The beadwork was accomplished in 250 hours. The blossoms are represented in the different colorways - some are similar to the Heavenly Blue variety. The light blue and lavender blooms are similar to those found in the local soybean fields. The darker blue with magenta center are also a local variety found in abundance in my garden. The vines were made using a spiral twisted three bead herringbone using three sizes of beads. The flowers in the center of the screen are attached to a necklace which can be removed and worn. The vines and leaves are made using opaque and silver lined beads. The flowers are made with matte transparent Delica beads. The title of the work is A View Through Flowers.

Autumn leaves in a Pennsylvania state park #peaceandlove
A small two lane country road, curving towards the left of the picture frame. The road is lined with deciduous trees on both sides. The leaves on the trees have begun to turn colors for the autumn season. Some of the leaves have fallen onto the ground. The cloudy sky is shades of gray.

Autumn texture #peaceandlove #flowersky
Bronze and greenish gold colored ornamental seed pods against the green colored grass of the plant. The photo is taken in bright sunlight with some shadows of the grass seeds visible. The texture of the seed pods is emphasized by the smooth lines of the grass.

Summer challenge for my local bead society. The theme was Chaos with Pearls. My entry became my mantra-
“I am an island of peace & love amid an ocean of chaos”
#peaceandlove #PeaceDay #beadsky
Beaded picture with the words peace & love on a green island with beaded flowers set on an ink splatter background with the word chaos repeated in waves.
