February - how I missed you. You were gone in a flurry, frenetic, so fast. One thing that was successful, accomplished on time, and simply a positive during February was the Component of the Month over at Art Jewelry Elements! Here is what Francesca sent us:
I love Fall. It truly is my favorite season. The crisp zing in the air, the colors, leaves... So when Diana sent us our stoneware leaf for the Suburban Girl design team, I was thrilled. My thoughts were on leaves - as I was working with Kristen's beaded leaf for the AJE team...and I wanted this to stand out and be unique, different...
October is going out with a bang... at least here in the Mid Atlantic. I am writing this ahead of the reveal date, as we have a predicted date with Hurricane Sandy...
Earrings and a necklace. Daily wear! Whether I am in the studio, teaching, working from home - I am not dressed without them. So - when Diana of Suburban Girl Studio announced an earring swap - sounds good to me!
My first partner is Linda Younkman. Arent these lovely? The blue beads are very detailed. and I love a spiral motif!
Last December I received notification for a show called TWOgether, a collaborative exhibit. Held at the Center for Creative Arts in Yorklyn, DE - the call was for a pair of works by 2 artists. I immediately thought of Betsy, my partner in crime, and many artistic undertakings. (We have had multiple exhibits of our show Imago Dea - envisioning the feminine divine.) So we sat at her kitchen table after the holidays and brainstormed.
Good Morning! Welcome to the Enamel Shadowbox bezel and blog hop! Here in Delaware - it has been a busy few days as we are preparing for Irene...So join me for a cup of coffee, thats what I am having - and enjoy!
My last post - a give away I was involved in. This post - a give away I would truly like to win! Barbara Lewis of Painting with Fire - enamels beads using a lampworkers torch - with gorgeous results. As you know, I have been doing more enameling lately. (Thanks to Melissa Manley!) And while I havent enameled beads, having the other kind of torch - they are beauties!
Do you know that feeling when you have experienced something fabulous and you want to share, yet at the same time you want to hold the magic in, keep it close and personal and precious?
