Back to Black

These are just a few of the pieces that I have made in the past couple of days. I have definitely been working a black linear motif. Most of these pieces are are coral, with the exception of the third picture, which is a pendant created from lavastone. The capped pieces utilize a herringbone wire wrapping technique.

Trading baubles for other baubles

Sunday at the Artoberfest Art Fair, I scored a couple of new rings from another artist who was also at the fair. Her name is Christina Root and she has a shop at www.christinaroot.etsy.com. I first found the black goddess ring, then at her urging, I also selected the red raku ring. She then picked out a pair of earrings that I had made in exchange for the rings. Artist barter is awesome! It allowed me to expand my collection of big fabulous rings.
