Captured Dragonfly!

Fine Silver Metal Clay dragonfly hanging from a leather necklace and serpentine stone! Enjoy!


I remember being so proud of this piece... I worked to get that silver all shiny showing off the texture of the dragonfly. I wanted to focus on the metal piece therefore using just a simple leather cording to hold it all in place with the aid of sterling silver wire! Now I try to make my pieces very dimensional and much more complex... but again it is good to remember less is more, sometimes.

Hear the water?

Enjoy this conventional full rosary depicts the ocean waves... love the colors!
As I was waiting for the sun to rise I was fixated on the waves... the mixture of color and swirl. Sometime greens, blues and even pearly white. I took that color combination and wrapped it up into a rosary... again bringing the person back to a 'happy' place. I know for many listening to the crash and lapping of the water is quite soothing... I have grown to appreciate it's amazing-ness.
The stones used to capture that moment are faux pearls, green fiberglass, serpentine, amazonite (one of my all time favs) and moss agate. When opened up it looks beautiful. I have fun with my bead-scapes asking people what they see or feel... this one was a winner hands down... W A  T  E  R !!! Yeah!

Another bead-scape

Enjoy this full decade rosary bracelet, another bead-scape of the Missouri valley in early morning!
To be truthful this was my first inspiration to capture a landscape - this was the early morning in a valley with morning mist rising. It was quite breathe taking. I wired together my inspiration but it sat for awhile trying to figure out how to work it together... with God you have to be patient... it came a few years later. The green part is the trees catching a glimpse of the rocks then the mist in the sky. The crucifix is the bottom part looking at the piece upwards. I was very excited with my idea but even more thrilled that I could use it as a rosary bracelet. Great way to hold fond memories of your happy place while you are praying... takes you right back there... amazing!
