Art Bead Scene November Challenge

This months inspiration for the November Challenge is a really wonderful piece of art called Tree of Life, Stoclet Frieze, 1909, Gustav Klimt 1862-1918.




I had a very good idea what I wanted to do right away. I had already been playing with some beads that fit in to the color scheme so I had a good start. I looked through my existing PMC pieces to see if I had something that would work. There are loads of wonderful pieces out there made by other artisans that would have worked but I really wanted to use my own work this time.
