Mermaid Bead Tole
2018 Finalist in Bead Dreams. This form of weaving on the loom includes layers, displayed in perspective. Similar to ‘paper tole’, but layered with bead woven portions. Each are layered to bring the closest part of the portrait, to the front.
Also, notice the bead ‘finish’ choices, taken into consideration, as well as the bead colors.
