Contemporary Bead Art

Looking at all the progress pics now actually are helping me keep moving.  I'm at a point where I'm thinking 'I've been working on this damn cheek forever!'  But then again, I've finished that side of the mask - the 'ear' area and temple are all totally beaded and it's all coming together.  I'm looping over that forehead 'crown' and coming back down the other side.  That is, if the lips and chin don't scream for embellishment first!
