Redid my display a bit at d'Art today. I also dropped 2 off pieces off at VBAC for the Renaissance show. And picked up my car from the service center and dropped it off at the mechanic. Because the world turns while it burns.

Done. The idea came from a name that popped into my head - Crushed Ice. But I'm going with Melting Ice instead.
"Melting Ice," (c)2026, bead woven necklace, glass, crystal and nylon.

Enjoy some progress shots from yesterday as I've done nothing but get tax stuff together today. Because nothing lifts your spirits from a murderous fascist regime like taxes 🙄

She's done! I actually finished her last night but was so mentally exhausted that I didn't post the photos.

I spent part of yesterday applying to shows & then worked on this guy a little more. I don't think I realized the scale of this piece until I started filling in the wings 😭 I'm fine, everything is fine.

Dropped this custom piece off for a customer today. She had this beautiful cameo, but wanted it framed in my beadwork. Here she is, surrounded in cream and brass hues, finished off with pearls, mother of pearl, and glass.

These are just fun. I wanted to play with color - one with a color mix from Miyuki, the other with a mass of beads from other projects that I cut apart. I have more ideas because I forgot how fun they are.

Last night was a blast at the Winters Return opening at the Virginia Beach Art Center. You know I love these folks when my introverted self doesn't feel completely drained after an opening.
And yes, I did chop my hair off.
