Okay, so I started on a project and have been so busy with a million other different things that I have come to almost a dead stop here in Dev!!! I must focus and be more organized. Looking forward to a shoot with a professional photographer for some of my pieces, can't wait to post those but the shoot isn't until the beginning of August... which now that I think of it is only a couple weeks away!!! We're halfway through summer here in Alaska and the weather continues to be unusually cool... so much for global warming!!! Be back around soon!!! Thanks everyone for being so patient!!!

So, you see I have cleaned out my deviation submissions... going in a different direction with this page and thought I would like a fresh start. I will be updating here soon so keep posted!!! In the meantime, my partner and I, Christina of Good Quill Hunting have thunk up a plan and we've got some great things in the works!!! Check out our new website at [link] and see what it's all about!!!

So OKAY!!!

Alright, I must admit I had been a little overwhelmed by the mask... but now it's done and I needed to concentrate on some simpler endeavors!!! (Give my weary mind a break!)
I must apologize for the picture of my newest piece, it does it no justice at all.
This piece is done in #15 Matte Black and Gold Charlottes with a 24 karat gold overlay. It is very delicate and beautiful... now I must go rummage through the jewelry catalogs to see how best to photographically showcase my work... since there is going to be lots of it, and I want it to look it's best... probably have to reshoot that one!!!

Finally Finally Finally!!!

Well, first I must apologize for not being around... many things happening around here, some good, some not so... but life seems to be on the upswing now... my mask is complete, and on her way to the exhibit!!! Whew!!! Now to concentrate on other things!!! Look for updates soon!!! Really!!! I mean it!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!

Finally, forward motion...

Well, I've spent the better part of the week staring at this "face"... now I've overcome the block, as I said before, I have no real plan for my mask... just letting "her" lead me. My head is full of ideas now so I should progress from this point on rather quickly... just in the nick of time too, as we are nearing the deadline for this challenge!!!
