Bird Concept development

After  discovering the 3d shape forms I had created with the beading, then began to further develop the idea and make it more abstract. As I had decided to use a v-shaped beading pattern for the birds shape concept which followed. Figure 2 is a close up picture of the new concept.

 However I decided to use tube shaped beads instead of the bugle beads I had been using before, as seen in the picture. The other change I decided to make was to make an overlapping over and under form rather than the shape I had previously made with the bugle beads.
