Time for Renewal! Work in Progress...

I'm re-evaluating, I cleaning house, I'm moving some things around because I need to change my focus. I will be spending less time dropping EC's. Since the big change in the EntreCard community, things have slowed down to a snail's pace and I simply cannot take the time anymore. I have enjoyed being in the top spot in the art category for quite a few months now. However, it seems that I am doing less art, less photography and less jewelry making. I am already working on some new art projects! I will be keeping up with my blog because I love blogging. Spring is in the air, and it's time to plant new seeds, so that's what I'm doing. I'll keep you posted as they say!

This drawing is a 'work in progress'. I have drawn a series of 3 Victorian doorknobs. I penciled in all three very, very gently, but it's time to bring them to life! They are all so different, with amazing detail, and what I love most about them is that they are over 100 years old!! Like living in a Victorian house, often the thought, 'if only these walls could speak', applies to these brass doorknobs as well!

A New Bauble From 'The Puzzle'

I call these lovely baubles, 'Modern Victorian'. I was drawn to the beautiful gold vermeil component. Sometimes, I think that I was born in the wrong era. I love so much of the 'old stuff', antiques, Victorian houses and doorknobs, the exquisite details of days gone by. However, I am aware that we all have different tastes, and that is one lesson I have WELL learned when creating jewelry. So, in this case, with these earrings, the mix of the sleek, simple, strong stem,

mixed with the very detailed vermeil component is a beautiful blend of old and new...hence, 'Modern Victorian'. I am delighted to say that I have my first on-line interview posted today with Raquel Roysdon from Divapreneur. Click here
