Challenging myself to create more art beads

I want to be an art bead maker. I mean, I already am- but I'm looking at what I've been creating lately, and feeling like I could be doing better, making more, and providing more of a service to the community by selling my beads.

So I've decided step one is to participate regularly in the largest online monthly challenge for art beads, which is held by the ArtBeadScene blog.  One of the things I can gain for myself by participating in the challenge is a schedule, a discipline, a way for me to challenge my own inspiration on a monthly basis to look at things in a new way.

I created a palette for myself from this month's artwork. The challenge is usually based on a particular piece of art- you are to get inspired by the theme and the colors. This month features a very textural gesso art nouveau piece, and those are two of my VERY favorite things in the world!



Here's where I created the palette, pretty neat! Click here.
