I like to take an idea and expand on it. This idea came from a blue and silver bead - a local artist made these beads with resin and I love them. I used her original bead to expand on a larger design in my own way. You can see her bead affixed in the design.
I wanted the shapes to be the focal point, so I did the same random bead pattern in each swoosh - like bead confetti. Honestly, I don’t love it. It felt lazy compared to times when I places beads in deliberate ways. However, the effect does mean the eye focuses on shape and color, and that was the point.
I worked on this one during a hard time at work. Work is done, and so is this project. That’s great! Ready to start new creativity.
