Back in the Saddle!

Autumn Fire

Back in the saddle again! After a short hiatus while working on craft show art, painting has resumed. This 16x20 on gallery wrapped canvas was done as a house warming gift for friends. I'm inspired to do more rainy day scenes AND some pure abstract work. Only time will tell where my muse leads me.

I've also made some jewelry for an upcoming craft show and I'm listing some on Etsy. I'll put some pictures up here for show and tell.

Red Jasper Necklace

Amazonite Necklace

You can go to my Etsy site to the right to see more jewelry. I've focused mainly on natural stones, such as Amazonite, Jasper, Sodalite, Agate, Amethyst and many others. So far I've made necklaces and earrings with sterling silver and antiqued brass findings.

Current home project is moving my studio from it's summer shed to it's winter quarters in the garage. Most of the space has been cleared, a trip to the town dump to get rid of some excess junk and furniture is in order. Then I'll have more room. There's a large gas heater/blower that needs to me checked out and turned on by a professional. Then it should be warm and toasty in the cold winter months.

That's all for now!
