There seem to be some color problems.





The background browns are fading into the Chinese text red-browns (a problem of translucency versus opacity). We'll see how it plays out. I have a few tricks up my sleeve.

*mouth open, eyes all round* Is it okay if I let everyone know I'm in love with you? That was the coolest explaination ever.

Well, sure, honey!

I realized after posting that comment that I'd failed to note the really salient fact: none of the examples are my own beadwork. They're just random pix off the web. The mask is by NanC Meinhard, one of the greats. The little beaded forms are Huichol tribal work from Mexico. The earrings are a beginner project off About.com.
