August Art Bead Scene Challenge

Summer Thunder by Hosteen KlahWeaving, Wood This textile is a wonderful inspiration for August.  The colors, so earthy and warm, make me think about the upcoming fall.  For this month's challenge, I knew I was going to use beads by Pat Antonick of Heliotrope Studio.  Pat has a studio which is about a 15 minute drive from my home.  She doesn't have an Etsy store, but she recently started a Facebook page .  Pat sells beads in order to purchase supplies for several of her endeavors.  She makes jewelry, ceramic beads, portrait quilts, and assemblage art to name a few.  If you are ever near Dayton, Ohio, be sure to stop by her studio. Due to time constraints, I went with earrings this time around. Lampwork Fossil Beads by Donna Millard Ceramic Leaf Dangles by Pat Antonick Lampwork Saucer Beads by Melissa?
