As the spectrum of colors increased for seed beads and became available I was able to create more detailed works of art. These encompass landscapes, city scapes and thematic works of art, which may be a breakthrough in fine arts and can be best described as “bead painting”. It has been said when viewing my work from a distance, they appear to be fine art paintings, however when you look closer, you will discover intricate mosaics, comprised of thousands of beads. The play of light on thes seed beads can only be described as stunning.
I built a bigger loom and started making pieces of 40-50 thousand beads. As time went on I found more and more sources of beads, built a larger loom and started making pieces of 100,000 beads. Now I am making pieces of two to three-hundread-thousand beads.
I stayed exclusively with size 11 seed beads. They are the most common and offer the largest selection of colors. I now have close to a thousand shades of beads.
