Unconventional Art
beads, baubles and jewels

Artists are known for taking an unconventional approach to their art - often introducing "non art" supplies to their work. First we look at stamped metal for inventive beads. Then Candie Cooper throws a curve and uses cookie tins for her project. Next Kate Richbourg throws out the loom for a lalique bracelet that is loom free. We'll finish up with artist Tamara Honaman as she manipulates right angle weave to turn it into shapes and beads.
