There's a completed moth:
And a partially completed snake:
The moth took about 6 days to complete and the snake is going on a little over a month. The snake has more complicated beading involved, including a branch, flowers and a border. I made a stupid decision to bead in the background elements from the fabric print. I regret this decision immensely. And the beads I chose for the flowers are a nightmare to work with. They are a brown/purple tube bead with an iridescent finish..... and super sharp edges. The edges keep cutting the thread and it's incredibly frustrating.
I have more canvases to work with, and I really want to make a piece about skin texture and color using the beads. I think I have a decent color pallet to work with and enough reference material to go with.
For now I guess that's the best update I can give.
I'll post new photos as I make things.
~see ya.
