Dream Catcher

My son, Jackson, wanted a dream catcher for his room. At school he was told about the Native American folklore behind it. So we were inspired to work on one, but knowing my compulsive side, once I get into something I LOVE…nothing can stop me. So I got really exited about all the things we could incorporated in to it. My son really just wanted a simple dream catcher and he was done with his BUT I didn't even realize when he got up and left me with my new obsession…beads, feathers, yarn, leather…yummy!

Yak Skull Art

My friend Teanna has a ranch a few miles from Crestone where they raise Yak, Chokurei Ranch. They process and use the whole animal, SO she had extra skulls. When I first saw the skull, The inspration came from my love of henna designs. This is a Yak skull that I decorated not too long ago. I love henna and thought this would look good on a skull although I painted it with oils….beads, oil paint, Yak skull…..fun!

I love summer! having my son Jackson at the house is great but I can't just sit and paint, so, I create all kinds of different stuff that I will be sharing with you…

I had the circle in these earrings beaded since winter but I felt like something was missing. Last Christmas I was talking to my brother in law in Louisiana and he was going duck hunting the next day. He is cajun and every year goes hunting around that time. I said I would love some feathers and a month later he sent me some! I fell in love with the beauty and perfection of the feathers. Love how the white duck feathers go with these beads, so, I put them together…and now its complete!
