(2012) 9"x 3", Size 15 seed beads (silver-lined pale gold iris, matte metallic dark olive, light metallic bronze, 14k gold) tiger eye beads, polyester thread.

I keep returning to this color combination, but it seems so very satisfying. The light bronze beads with their little gold accents give the piece such a nice fall feeling. The photos don't show it much, but the silver-lined gold beads for the background have some fantastic shimmer when the light hits them just the right way.

The pattern is once again based on the awesome tribal tattoo art of :iconkarloz030985:

Once again, gorgeous! Your dune color scheme fits so many projects so well. (Pardon the desert association--I was listing to Dr. Bob Brier's lectures in the studio today). Forgive my premature senility, but have you tried any of the tribal designs with shades of silver? A silver gradient (dark gray as opposed to black) would be interesting, indeed!

Thank you! I guess there were these two: [link] and ellygator.deviantart.com/art/Silver-lined-318537951?q=gallery%3Aellygator%2F33749&qo=136 which have some silver in them, but not a pure gray gradient, rather some blues, pinks, lilacs etc. mixed in with them...

out of all of them, I deblieve this is my favorite thus far. I love how the flame is more tribal in nature and the color works very well for it. Awesome Work!

Thanks so much! I have to admit the pattern really grew on me while I was making this one. I may revisit it with another color scheme, just for the heck of it.
