About the Artist

In the 30+ years I have been beading I have come to appreciate the wide variety of art that can be created with beads. I work primarily with smaller glass seed beads using an off-loom bead weaving technique known as peyote stitch. No glue or epoxy is ever used. Many of my sculptures are made by beading over natural materials such as bamboo, driftwood, antlers and river rocks as well as vases and urns. I love working with color to create vibrant patterns which are all free-form and unique to each piece. I derive much inspiration from modern and ancient beadwork from Egyptian, African, Native American and aboriginal cultures. My work is meant to be held and touched and enjoyed for many years. I hope you find something you love! -Pamela Jensen
