Pretty Palettes November Reveal

Image
It is time for the 'Pretty Palettes" November 2015 reveal!  Erin Prais-Hintz has picked a painting by Henri-Edmond Cross. Impressionist painter Henri-Edmond Cross frequently created landscapes, often with beach-bathing nudes or more mundane scenery of farmers laboring in their fields, it was this painting that really caught Erin's eye. At first it appears to be just a simplistic color gradation. But upon further inspection, you can see the mountains of the isles in the distance, and notice the shimmering golden waves. So our Pretty Palette for November should take us away on a vacation of mind, body and spirit, filled with the ocean tones of sand, surf and sky. This painting is called  Îles d’Or and really captures the beauty of this seaside landscape. I hope you will escape along with us!  My Bead Gallery® Palette 10393263 purple glass 6/0 seed beads 10464240 synthetic lapis stone beads 6mm 10265206 blue dyed quartzite chips 10322661 sto
