Battle Of The Beadsmith 2015
Här är mitt bidrag till årets Battle. Som jag skrivit tidigare är inte ambitionsnivån den bästa men känner mig nöjd med bidraget ändå. Blomman har jag gjort i en teknik som kallas ”Ryska löv”. Tack, till min fina modell Cecilia Schiött som var enkel att jobba med. Tävlingen pågår på Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/419636224777912/requests/

About myself
I love bead weaving, bead embroidery and wire work and inspires of bold focals, vibrant color combos, structures and architectural patterns. Often a beautiful cabochon or a lovely lampwork bead can influence my design. I have learned the basics in West Australia where I lived for some years, from designers and artists in various fields of technology but also spent countless of hours by teaching myself. Now and then I participate in exhibitions with other artists. I sell my jewelry on my blog, www.ihaofsweden.com
