ABS September 2014 Challenge Necklace

This necklace was created for the Art Bead Scene Blog September 2014 challenge. The inspiration artwork is a gesso panel by Margaret Macdonald, and can be seen here: artbeadscene.blogspot.com/2014/09/september-monthly-chall....

I created this piece using seed beads, Czech pressed glass, one of my own polymer clay faces, and two lampwork beads. The large beige and blue oval is by Valerie O'Neal. Though she doesn't sell online, you can contact her via her Facebook page: www.facebook.com/pages/Seaside-Fire-Designs/268771994632?.... The small bumpy lampwork bead is made by Sharon Ryman of Catalina Glass on Etsy: www.etsy.com/shop/catalinaglass?ga_search_query=bowl.

I was most inspired by the texture and layering in the original artwork, so I used a variety of stitches to emulate this.
