Portfolio Example & Materials Statement
Yonavea Hawkins

For my work I use Czech cut beads and my bead work is done using multiple beading techniques from on a loom or hand stitched on buckskin, broadcloth, and fabric using two needle applique stitch or half stitch, gourd stitch, wrap stitch and edge beading. I sign and date my work, so you know that it is an original piece made by me. My bead work has several influences ranging from South Eastern, Woodland, and Plains.
