>Gray is the New Green

>

Last night, I stayed up until 3am doing beadwork and watching DVDs! But, it was great because I finished beading my 2nd green whale, then I started working on the 3rd whale. If you're a new reader, these whales will accompany my beaded Beatles Yellow Submarine in an underwater adventure when everything is all complete. (You can take a peek at my sketch HERE.)

Above is a quick look at my worktable. As you can see, the chartreuse seed beads are gone, and many different grays have taken their place. I used size 11 matte transparent grey and green-lined yellow seed beads for the whales fins and tail. And, I plan to use a variety of size 15 seed beads for the body of the whale. Take a look at him up close:

If these whales were in the original Yellow Submarine film, why do you think I chose grey??
