MATERIAL/TECHNIQUE:
I use a 3 dimensional technique called Iroquois Raised beadwork. It is distinctive to the Haudenosaunee People. Where there are beads beaded over beads to create a 3D look. I mostly use glass delica beads and size 15 seed beads to create my work. I also use natural materials such as shell or bone and leather.
