I feel I am starting to take more risks in my art, and the current stage of my beaded DeLorean reflects that. I am working on the headlight beams of the car. I am using about 7 different types of bright blue seed beads, and I am trying not to think about where I stitch them! This is not usually how I work, but I think it is appropriate for this part of my piece. I hope I end up liking what I bead! :o

If you do beadwork, have you ever tried to work improvisationally? If so, what was the result??
