Welcome to The Bead People Nation!

Bead People here, with greetings to the unknown, from the beyond!

 

From intergalactic dimensions, to the here and now,

from CT to you!

 

CT here, launching this new web site with a little help from my friends. Well, lots of help. And love. And Encouragement. Cat on the grand piano, too.

 

Bead People LOVE posing for pictures. They LOVE traveling, too.  Adopt a bead person, and take some photos. Exotic ecosystems, lovely locales, precious placements, jazzy jewelry ideas... send us your pictures so we (and you?) can show off some more!

 

E-mail us your comments about the Bead People and the adventures they might be having. We will update this blog according to uncertain and weird timelines. The journey never ends, but for CT it did begin, with the original ancestral bead people of old - pictured on this page.

 

THANKS TO THE FOLLOWING OUTSTANDING INDIVIDUALS:

 

Bead People Nation is here on the web for your viewing pleasure courtesy of a creative giant with a softspoken razor mind, award-winning, photographer & designer extraordinaire Howard Gale Ford. He really captured our look, don't you think?

 

Here are the links to his photo web sites >>

Grateful for Lisa Perrott who generously granted permission for Valtone, Mintal, and Duna to hang out by candlelight in front of her art piece "Fire!"  We LOVE her art. www.lisaperrott.com

CT’s Talking Bead People Blues

 

Well, I grew up strange,

and I grew up fast.

Am I pushing my luck?

How long can it last?

With a bead in my hand

and my heart in the bush,

mystery creatures came by -

they told me take a look.

Like a treasure I’ve known

since before I was born,

The Bead People now have

A life of their own.

Smiling out loud,

gale-force love at my back,

I watch the beads dance

with a cat on my lap.

Music incarnates,

the best from my brother,

while the Bead People sing,

if it’s not one thing it’s your mother!
