Artist Leslie Ossentjuk is a representational artist based in Ventura County, California. Recent years have been spent part time in Santa Fe, New Mexico where she and her husband keep a second home. As the daughter of an architect and an art professor, Leslie was fostered in an environment rich in culture and creativity. She was educated in Claremont, California, which was an important post-war art community in the years before and during her childhood. Ms. Ossentjuk earned her B.A. in Studio Art from Scripps College in 1985. Although her background includes various three-dimensional disciplines, such as jewelry design and sculpture, much of her concentration lies in portraiture and still life utilizing colored pencil, oil paint, and pastel. Leslie’s micro crochet projects make up her Ropes of Glass collection of beadwork, and take her skills beyond the easel. https://www.lossentjukart.com/ropesofglass daily 0.75 2021-06-27 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/t/60ca5ac80b3e0e41d86557be/1623994770475/B050BLYiQAm2bhqqC4ILOQ.jpg Ropes of Glass - foundation Each 44-inch necklace averages 6,700 beads. Before the rope comes together, all of the tiny beads are strung on a single thread, one at a time. The stringing process for each necklace takes an average of twelve hours. This is where the sequence of the pattern gets established. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/60c0208838813c6f9ecf867b/60ca1f5f91d48a5281656314/1624807700389/fullsizeoutput_1b92.jpeg Ropes of Glass - VIENTO Shown in Tailwater 44-inch length by 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/60c0208838813c6f9ecf867b/60ca1f5f14a4064a00079076/1624807685213/fullsizeoutput_1b93.jpeg Ropes of Glass - VIENTO Shown in Tailwater 44-inch length by 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/60c0208838813c6f9ecf867b/60d76e551718c54db70b4503/1624807690333/fullsizeoutput_1ba1.jpeg Ropes of Glass - MAREA Shown in Atoll 44-inch length by 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/60c0208838813c6f9ecf867b/60d89231dc4c9a1226255f18/1624807695358/fullsizeoutput_1bad.jpeg Ropes of Glass - SANGRE de CRISTO, and SADDLE BLANKET 44-inch length by 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/60c0208838813c6f9ecf867b/60d8937a829f2527255db398/1624857403215/fullsizeoutput_1baf.jpeg Ropes of Glass - PYTHANON Shown in Verdegris 44-inch length by 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/60c0208838813c6f9ecf867b/61109a326f703917e9f1f3f4/1628478011380/fullsizeoutput_1bd1.jpeg Ropes of Glass https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/60c0208838813c6f9ecf867b/6113237844c9ea16cdf7ee46/1628644221013/23701bc8-a039-4bca-a22a-fbd7a70e367b.JPG Ropes of Glass https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/5cbe7fddb70ede0001c376ed/1558927785508/fullsizeoutput_219.jpeg Ropes of Glass - IT HAPPENED IN THE GARDEN oil on mat board 19.5” x 22” framed NFS https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/60af2ea5599e6e33d23c6f3c/1622141264245/uex2E7h6TiiuDDtTqZ9y3g.jpg Ropes of Glass - DIAMONDS IN FLUX Shown: Toast and Jam, and Teal and Turquoise each, 44-inch length, 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/60af355b71adcc097c82d128/1623203422893/IMG_2514.jpg Ropes of Glass - TRIPLE TREAD Shown: Blue Zest and Golden Coral each, 44-inch length, 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/60af385759206513e2cf6128/1624807732652/ Ropes of Glass - DIAMONDWINDER` Shown: Quicksilver, Sepia, and Slate https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/60afeb1509cc1565be857f1f/1622169023176/fullsizeoutput_1b61.jpeg Ropes of Glass - DIAMONDS IN FLUX Shown: Toast and Jam, and Turquoise Teal each, 44-inch length, 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/60b056f90813255bb02a716f/1624807732679/fullsizeoutput_1b68.jpeg Ropes of Glass - DIAMONDWINDER Shown: Quicksilver, Slate, and Sepia each, 44-inch length, 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/60c01e93c8e39525830b92aa/1623203718662/fullsizeoutput_1b61.jpeg Ropes of Glass - DIAMONDS IN FLUX Shown: Toast and Jam, and Turquoise Teal each 44-inch length by 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/60d89668829f2527255dde46/1624807285991/fullsizeoutput_1b64.jpeg Ropes of Glass - KING of the ROAD 44-inch length by 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/5cbe7ef0eb393123d1e9913f/60d897402f1394216c467023/1624827290438/fullsizeoutput_1bb0.jpeg Ropes of Glass - KING of the ROAD 44-inch length by 1/4-inch width https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cbdf78065019fdcc0da1abd/t/60cacc755b56cf07227e65f7/1623903360618/fullsizeoutput_1b97.jpeg Ropes of Glass - structure A cylindrical network of stitches gives an unexpected degree of strength and durability to the delicate, and meticulous handwork of each beaded rope.
