June 2012 - nighthawk palette 3 Brandi Hussey Art Bead Scene

I’ve always liked this painting by Edward Hopper

Nighthawks (1942)

Can’t everyone relate to the late night, cheap diner experience?

I think we’ve all been there and done that at some point in our development.

Who knew, even the Simpson’s had an episode featuring this cheap diner backdrop?

Nighthawks reference with Simpsons Characters

Enough talk, here’s the jewelry design for the month.

My sister has a birthday this month and I’m hoping she will like this gift coming her way.

Materials used: assorted seed beads, C-Lon cord, copper chain, jumprings, clasp, silk sari cord, embroidery thread

,lampwork glass headpins, lucite flowers, and a Lipstick Ranch rustic “sisters” charm.

I opted to work with Brandi Hussey’s Color Palette 3 for this months Art Bead Scene Challenge.

      Thank you. It was lots of fun to figure out how to work the multi-strands into the design without getting it too bulky. Truthfully, I liked it and almost wanted to keep it. But, I figure that I can always make another one.

    It’s really stunning, especially the way all the cords come together so tidy and purposeful. Just a beautiful design all over.
