Inspiration: Caroll Lenthall

June 29, 2008 by Denise Felton 4 Comments

Carol Lenthall‘s pages for the Bead Journal Project are beautiful, captivating, and most of all innovative. By combining simple bead forms and cabochons in improvisational but basically geometric patterns, she creates a jeweled fabric that invites the eye to move, study, enjoy. Go to Carol’s blog and look at the close-up shot of this piece, her April bead page. The background is thousands of French knots. Exquisite.

    Kind regards,
