Throughout the summer and early fall I've been practicing my work with Stringers to make waves and layers of spots on beads. I'm learning to work in, out and next to the flame as well as improving my hand control to paint the stringer on my beads for waves. I've also improved my hand-eye control for more evenly placed and symmetrical spots. The wave bead above has been one of my best with the beginning and end of the wave connecting seamlessly. This bead was made at the Wrightstown Demo in September.
These two pictures are part of a Viking necklace I made for Katya to give as a present to the new Queen of Trimaris. The necklace has spirals, waves, melons and evil eye beads (spots on spots)
These are of some of my earlier wave beads.
A fibula I made with 2 melon beads and wave bead.
