Another dose of color for you from Anna Anpilogova today. The warm colors of her polymer “mango” beads remind us that spring is not far off.

The text on her blog is in Russian and it’s fun to follow along on her studio experiments in Belarus. Anna’s Flickr pages give you the pictures without having to translate anything. She invents constantly and offers this simple faux chevron tutorial that ends with a sophisticated result.

Thanks to Claire Maunsell for the link.

          While the design of piece is very beautiful in its simplicity, the colors are what immediately struck me in an almost emotional way – this combination has always been my favorite, and Anna does it _perfectly_ . Simply luscious..

            Her take On Desiree McCrory’s faux chevron–which she credits graciously–is ingenious as a stand-alone technique. I Love it. (It is a hoot, by the way, to hit the google translate button on the blog–the unintentional poetry of it is something no one could have invented) Thank you, Anna!!!

              Never under-estimate the power of the bead. I know all sorts of techniques and I sculpt… my work does well, Then I do beaded bracelets like Anna’s here and people go gaga! Love her colors, simply said! nice work.

                    Those are dead-on mango colors. Really impressive blending.
