Welcome

Hello to all.

I hope you enjoy visiting this blog.

I want to make it a place for people to enjoy my art and the process I go through in learning new things as well as sharing

Take care be well and relish everything!

A weekend of creativity

 Here is how I spent some fun time this weekend.  Creating these pieces is never work and time flies when I am creating.
With Christmas coming up soon I'm sure some of these will end up as gifts.


First necklace made early Saturday Dec 3,2011

Wire wrapped neacklace Dec/2011


Earrings made Dec/2011


This is a piece I made a while ago but love it and wanted to post it.











I love weekends like this. Plenty of time for fun, friends and making beautiful things.

Just clowning around.


Just playing with an idea.

I just wanted to see if this would work.  Maybe it will turn into something later.

Here is Medusa.  I so love this lady.  I feel like this when my hair won't behave.
