Friday's "Unique and Different"

At Joystarstudio a fantasic combination of nature and art is fused together with the intricacy of Bead Work. Beautiful pieces of shells, driftwood from the beach and harvested hazel and willow saplings along with a wide variety of beads is put together to create these gorgeous "Spirit Portals".

Confluence (OOAK)

Joy has created these Spirit Portals since 2006 and a few of her pieces can be found on Etsy, such as this gorgeous piece above called "Confluence". These Spirit Portals are One-of-a-Kind (OOAK) works of art and take countless hours and dedication to come up with the finished piece. "Confluence" took 160 hours to complete, and it is indeed a Masterpiece. The eye can wander aimlessly, taking in all the intricacies and wonders this piece holds.

Joy is inspired by the Elements of Earth, Fire, Water and Air, and it can be seen in her work.

High Tide (ooak)

Joy has many talents besides this gorgeous mix of nature and Bead Work. She also enjoys Painting, Floral Design, embroidery, crewel, needlepoint, weaving and tapestry crochet as well as loomwork, peyote stitch, and applique.

Though her Shop is small, she is certainly an amazing Artist yet to be discovered on Etsy.

Come visit her Shop and have a look at the wonders it beholds!!
