A New Pendant

I've been toying around with the idea of doing more layers with my pendants....and I saw this wonderful video from Dan Cormier and Tracy Holmes about how their SHARK tool works....you can use it to make large graduations smaller...which is such a great thing to be able to do...I've been trying to get them small enough to work in my pendants and have had no luck....so I ordered one and can't wait to use it...

Their work(as well as their tools)blows my mind....

A Few New Pendants

Well, the hand is coming along...I've been able to work on my show orders and even do a few new pieces....the deco piece is a bit TOO deco, but it was fun....

"Handmade"

had surgery on the other hand yesterday so this will be short...but it does gi ve you new respect for everything you do with your hands....which is pretty much everything....

if you have been having pain or numbness in your hands, please ask yor dr about it. don't wait for years like i did....the surgeries are very easy.....and you can do irreperable nerve damage if you let it go untreated...not a lecture, just hope to help anyone who might be putting it off

ok, hope to be back in commission soon....peace
