Leaves



For some reason I went this way today....it felt good, although a big derivative....but who knows where that might go...I have to go reread "Art and Fear"......

Playing



Well, to make things even more uneven, I went off on a tangent the last few days with alcohol inks....I made the mistake of painting directly on pearl Primo clay instead of putting down silver leaf and had a bunch of long beads made when I realized it....they turned out really nice though...more sutble, more colorful, than the ones with the leaf underneath(although I am a sucker for shiny things)and I found myself playing with them and came up with these two pendants...which to me couldn't look farther from the work I've been doing....so I am in a quandry....do I keep going in this direction or stop....try to see if I can combine some of both styles....or am I just not seeing the forest for the trees?




Deadlines
















ARRRGGGHHH.....only two weeks til the wholesale show in Las Vegas....less than that really because I have to ship ahead of time....so I'm approaching a deadline quickly and I couldn't be more unsure of what my line will be for this show....



So I thought I would past a few of the pieces I've done over the last week or so...and see what they look like all together....
