Lament for "Late Winter Freeze"

It's odd that I should regret selling one ring so intensely, but this rhinestone encrusted multi-finger monster of a ring keeps haunting me; Especially now, with fall on the horizon.  Here's a tribute to "Late Winter Freeze" Ring:

Fun with black, gold, and gunmetal...

I'm going through a "subdued" phase with my jewelry color palette...

Klewism Meets the Magazine Cover

I'm elated to see my "Augury of Spring" Necklace on the cover of the Summer 2010 issue of Eco-Beautiful Weddings.  The image is exquisite, and the model looks divine and I am, in short, giddy with pleasure.

Au Revoir, Biomorphically Hinged Bracelet!

This pretty darling sold today...a mixture of joy and sadness for me...I shouldn't worry, it's going to a good home and it's also an inanimate object.

Jewelry Deconstructed

There's a thrill in photographing one of my own paintings, cutting up the photo, & collaging it into a new context.  Now to start playing with my jewelry...

Installment #3 of the Cheeky Chimera Collection-

As implied by the title, these earrings are dripping with a glam rock glittering excess that still, somehow, stays both classy and elegant. How miraculous!

In fact, these earrings embody my notions of a Cheeky Chimera: a fantastical monster composed of vignettes from dreams and waking life...

Each earring is unambiguously different from it's mate, and still clearly belonging to it.

Hammered brass wire is intermixed with freshwater pearls, rhinestones, Swarovski crystals, and glass beads, and several accent details from recycled costume jewelry.
Chains dangle from each earring, adding graceful movement and accentuate a slender neckline.

Though loaded with panache, the earrings are amazingly lightweight!
