Portfolio Example & Artist Statement
Rita Lush

I utilize glass and crystal beads, sinew, leather, bonded beading thread, silver or gold plated findings, and glass rhinestones. My pieces are created using either single needle or double needle stitching depending on what project I might be working on. I enjoy using different stitching styles for variety and depth. I am inspired by the juxtaposition of regalia, contemporary art, and glamour.
