My
name is Patti Large', I am of Nez Perce/Cherokee ancestry and have beaded
for many years. This page contains some examples of my beadwork. Jazzybeads
page also shows some of my Northwest Coast designs made up into beaded
pieces.
The runes page shows
examples of my rune carving.
I am half American
Indian and half Celtic (Welsh, Scots and Irish) I live in the two worlds
quite comfortably and love the artwork of both worlds.
To
walk in both worlds meant that my American Indian and Celtic traditions
would both be honored. I have done this by carving stone runes and doing
beadwork. Both are a source of much joy and happiness and I would like
to share them with you.
Living in Western
Washington, on the Kitsap Peninsula is a blessing. The rain lets up once
in a while and the beauty of the Olympic Mountains inspires me to my art
work. I hope you enjoy my offerings |
