This one is for ME!

I make a lot of art jewelery and I wear a lot of it too. I just go to my storage drawers and find something to go with what I have on. It's surprisingly rare for me to make a piece specifically for an outfit but today I had a little bit of spare time in an unusually tidy studio so I made myself a pendant to wear to a reception I'm going to tonight. Here is is- it sets off a new sweater I bought on my last trip to Saltspring and will look great with some lapis lazuli earrings from Chili!

I wish I knew how to make shoes.

  1. Nice pendant Gera! I especially love the colors in it. I know what you mean about making something for yourself. I finally started doing that last summer so I would have something special to wear to shows and such. I often thought it would be nice to make the shoes too -- oh well, we can always dream! lol

  5. I love the colours. What kind of paint do you use? I have played with the crackled paint technique, but never seem to get such wonderful deep colours as you do. All your stuff is lovely.
