    This is brilliant! It can't possibly be as simple as you make it seem. This is proof you're an artist! I also watched the Museum spot on you and wanted to say how much I admire the way you straddle what is traditional with what is contemporary. For traditional artists there is always (I think) a kind of tension between the two, and how an artist resolves or even exploits that tension can result in some absolutely spectacular work. You are an excellent example of that.

    I am so happy to find another artist that sews beads like I do. Its very hard to use this technique. Many people glue them on. I have finally finished one of my painting 10 by 10, took many hours of work.

      @Giuseppinagreco. I am from India. And and in India, we wear clothing that as glitter, sequins, stones work, mirror work, bead work, thread work, lace, etc... For special occasions like weddings, wedding anniversary parties etc... Very few designers will actually take the time to sew these things on to the garments like this.
      most of these things are just glued on to the garments. And after a few times wearing the garments, those things will fall off and you would need to buy again to wear for another fancy party.

    • @cindyevans219
      @cindyevans219 Před 2 lety +1

      @@elephant0e The bigger the number the smaller the bead. 8/0, 11/0 and 15/0 are the most widely used I would say. Bead Artists will use smaller beads for more detailed work. Enjoy your beading adventure 😊

    You make it look so easy! Even getting the beads on the needle. Such a beautiful piece of artwork, you are truly talented! I hope to learn a lot from your videos and maybe one day I can show off some work and gladly point others who want to learn here. I'm assuming that you sell some of your work, which I would like to do one day if/when I ever get good enough. How do you gauge what a piece is worth?

      Only pull down enough to make it disappear between beads, keep the actual beading string taught but loose enough you can still feel slight movement in the beads. Like you can gently turn them

    I keep trying to understand how, after gathering a whole line of, maybe 20 beads, you then go UNDER the canvas , but end up ON TOP with the same needle and thread to the end of that string of beads? Or are there 2 separate
    needles? Is 1 needle waiting underneath for when the other needles brings the line if new beads?

    • @doggyspeak
      @doggyspeak Před 4 lety

      I can’t quite tell from the video but I know at most craft stores you can compare the diameter on packets of beads with that of the needles you use to find something that will fit through. Try to get something smaller than the bead holes so you don’t risk breaking beads or getting them stuck! If you don’t know either you might try eyeballing it or testing by lightly pulling your needle through one of your beads. if light coaxing doesn’t push your needle through, its not small enough or you may need thinner thread

  • @donm7313
    @donm7313 Před 4 lety +2

    Best way if you need strength or if the beading is on a garment or accessory that will take a lot of use is to put 2 on at once , backstitch back into the third, pull through all three, put two on, backstitch into 3rd , pull through all three-
    That way if threads ever break, they won’t unravel
    One of the most important things to do though, that sedates amateur from professional is waxing your thread with beeswax , and a clean and tidy backside
