A year ago my friend, Sherry Stiles, and I challanged one another to do a sketch a day for a period of time. I decided I was not happy doing drawings on paper and I wanted to do mine with beads. (Needless to say I am not able to do a sketch a day.) Doing these small beaded pieces is giving me a chance to experiment with different ideas, textures and bead stitches. The result of this challange is this first series, "Sketches: Creation" based on the biblical story of the creation of the world. Each "day" consists of 4 2"x2" sketches using glass seed beads stitched on pelon then glued to a 4 3/4" square canvas. I will post a new sketch every day.
