All of the pieces are purchased from the artist, then sold, and all proceeds go back into the community. Most of the peyote is 2- or 3-drop, so would work up pretty fast. Some of those pieces -- the Christmas trees -- were HUGE. Doing a single color over a massive area would be a bit much for me! They are peyote over a form.

The aesthetic is so much different than ours, and it is so much fun to "travel" this way. Sounds like a great project you're involved in, how did it start? Thanks! I took more pictures, but they were all through glass, with glare from a window. These were the best ones. The penguins were my favorite.... I do!

There is so much originality. Some of us here are sending beads to a group of women in Mongolia. Again, it is to help them support their families. Great pics.
