Laura McCabe





Laura McCabe is an amazing artist. Her beading is inspired by Native American, African Zulu, and Victorian bead-weaving techniques and jewelry. Her beading is extremely labor intensive- some necklaces take 400+ hours! The eyeballs used in the necklaces are real glass eyes used in taxidermy animals and for people who lost their real eye. Creepy but cool! Laura came to Focus on the Arts at my school this year and taught a super fun and interesting workshop.
