From Around the World

Posted by LavenderCreek Glass on 2/24/2006

This is the beginning of a new series for me. Depictions of women and maybe even men ;) from different cultures around the world. I think most of these will be done in a relief style, on flattened tabs. I really like the look.

Water -bearer 250 x 368 px (23 KB) 0 Comments		Water-bearer When I made this bead I hadn't thought of a specific part of Africa, in future I will try to be more precise. The mudcloth fabric and the detail on the pot were done with powdered glass paint, refired and then etched. She is 79mm x 30mm x 20mm. 200 x 379 px (18 KB) 0 Comments

Water Bearer II Well, I ended up keeping the first WAter Bearer bead for myself, so I made another one which is pretty similar but with a different mud cloth pattern and water jar. She is also a bit stockier. 230 x 461 px (26 KB) 0 Comments	Water Bearer II 204 x 460 px (22 KB) 0 Comments	Water Bearer II 230 x 434 px (23 KB) 0 Comments

Beautiful work
Sheila Morley: I really enjoy this series.
Each girl has a little character that I can see
just in the way the shoulder is lifted.
I enjoy how the clothing fades into the bead.
Keep it up!

Lucky Town Art Glass: Teresa, these beads are absolutely awesome! I don`t know if I`m more in love with your goddesses or with these beautiful pieces of art.
