CINDY HOLSCLAW - BEADING ANALYTICALLY - Full Interview

FROM SCIENTIST TO BEAD ARTIST & BEADING TEACHER Cindy Holsclaw of San Diego planned to be a scientist working in a lab every day, analyzing molecules with a giant mass-spectrometry machine. But fate and beadwork intervened, and she became one of the leading beading designers in the United States, applying what she'd learned while earning her Ph.D. in biochemistry and molecular biology - to designing new beaded structures. A BEADWORK MAGAZINE "DESIGNER OF THE YEAR" In 2015, Cindy Holsclaw was named Beadwork Magazine's "Designer of the Year." That year, her beading designs were featured in six consecutive issues of Beadwork Magazine.

CINDY'S BEADED SCULPTURES While many of her beading designs are wearable, others are scultpural, destined to be displayed on a table, shelf or pedestal as an example of beaded art. I'm thinking especially of the pieces in her "Terrarium Collection," which can be described as monumental bead dodecahedra with fully-beaded faces. She teaches these designs in workshop form: https://www.beadorigami.com/pages/ter... CINDY'S BEADING PATTERNS Currently, Cindy Holsclaw offers 82 beading patterns on her website in a wide variety of beading techniques to suit beaders of any skill level: https://www.beadorigami.com/collectio...
