winterspring, knittingbeads

All springy and shit...or maybe mid-summer, that's when fireweed looks sort of like that.
Mmmhmm, that's what the willows look like about now, but the cottonwoods surely aren't dropping leaves. Artistic license much?

MMph. Black and shiny makes a blind woman blinky. This will be wrapped around a brass cuff to make a bracelet. ...and I won't be making any more raven birds for a while.
Egg and butter plus fireweed, must have been a fire through this scene not too long ago. Apocalyptic beading anyone?
Oh thank goodness, we made it back to winter. Why look, it's snowing out in the real world too, all is well.

oh, Kelly... these are gorgeous! Makes me think of Jo Wood's work. And you're much too hard on yourself LOL These are just so beautiful!

Oh, the sarcastic comments aren't related to the work...the weather was and still is (dammit) sucky. Heavy wet snow that was supposed to wash away and is still falling! You'd think it was early March or something, lol!

Okay, I understand that. I can clearly remember the tears that flowed because we were still being snowed in, in April and sometimes even May.

3rd one...ravens or 3rd one trees?

Thanks Cyn, the ravens need more fans, those tiny black sparklies were a pain!

The ravens will be sewn on to a brass cuff with a soft leather lining, for sale at the Extreme Dreams gallery in Haines this year!
