Hard to explain: painting from beaded dolls

My cousin sent me an inspirational book on African Doll Figure Beading called Bead by bead. They seemed like 2 dimensional images on 3 dimensional figures. Hard to explain, but anyway I decided to paint them.

I’ve sold the cow. I almost painted over it before I finished it but a friend stopped me.
