Every time I come back to the challenge painting I am mesmerized by the seemingly magnetic pull of those suction-faced tentacles reaching toward our delicate mermaid. It is a wonder that she escapes their clutches on her quest for whatever she is seeking. This fringe-laden design by Jennifer LaVite of Dry Gulch Beads looks just like one of those crusty limbs reaching out. All those many seed beads with just a hint of coppery leaves feel as those they are in motion with the currents. And that focal lampwork glass bead is certainly a treasure of the deep!

Wow! Absolutely gorgeous necklace, the colours are beautiful together and the touch of copper just sets the blues and greens off perfectly and draws the eye to that large, is it a lamp work bead? I just love it!
