I do my pattern creation with Beadscape and am
always happy to create special patterns by request. (but I don't
copy or convert other artists work or photos) I do my best to design
with the finished product in mind. I spend lots of time beading and
testing the suggested colors together first, so you will not be
disappointed with your finished creation. If I missed a color (Which
sometimes I do) or you need any help, Please contact me.
I strive for a quality finished product, not just a
pretty picture on paper.
I have been an artist all my life, Mostly sketching,
painting and embroidery even some silversmithing at
one time. I hope to put up some of my work
here as soon as I can get them photographed. I
started beading back around 1992 and fell in love
with it. I now design beadwork patterns which has
taken on a life of its own. I design from my
favorite things in life, My garden, my family,
the wildlife, and many many dreams I have.
I am a stay at home mom with my first son Gregory,
Which gives me equal time to throw myself into my
work, either designing or beading for the summer art
shows as well as play.
Little Gregory has now started designing his own
patterns and loves to pick colors for new projects.
He loves the pouches I make (especially the
fishbowl) and has a lot of fun playing with them.
All my jewelry is "Gregory Tested" so they will
stand up to normal wear and tear.
Here is one of
my early pen sketches, done back in 1989.
This is a painting I did back in 1990 of my sheltie
Nikita, I had as a child,
