Description

This is a beadwoven freestanding sculpture which was inspired by the undersea featherduster barnacles as well as by the forms of flowers. Somewhere the two intermingled and this piece was born. The red arms can be retracted, pulled out and re-arranged to suit yourself. Some of the arms have wires within, some do not. This sculpture took hundreds of hours to weave. It stands roughly 4 inches tall and is composed of thousand of tiny glass beads woven in peyote stitch, tubular peyote, netting and fringe. This is my entry in the Etsy Beadweavers Red challenge.
