Call and Response - Done

Here is the piece for the Call and Response show at ArtsWorcester. I am very pleased with the way it turned out. I love it and not to mention that it looks fabulous on. It has four hollow forms, three silver and one copper. It hangs from a thick rubber cord. I will be writing a statement about the piece and posting when I am done. Steve and I will be dropping off our pieces for this show tomorrow as we are tearing done our Co-Habitat show. :( I hope you all had a chance to see.

Necklace in progress

The above is the necklace that II am working on for the ArtsWorcester exhibit Call and Response. I am very excited about this. The necklace is going to be amazing. There are going to be three sterling silver hollow forms and one cooper hollow form. The top two will have a cut out to look as if it has been ripped open, with granulation under it. Everything will be giving a high polish. When I started thinking about the inspiration pieces and of Africa as a whole I was most inspired of the place as a whole and how it is a place torn apart. I can not wait to share the completed piece and have it in the exhibition.

Sprout #6

Here is Sprout #6!! I love it!! It looks a amazing. What a ring. And it is so comfortable to wear the only think that you have to watch out for are the sprouts. If you hit a wall they will bend and they will caught in your hair. I know that I have pulled out my hair (literally) from wearing jewelry. Well worth it of course. This is a show piece. And what a show piece.

Call and Response

Yesterday I was in my studio(finally) and was working out a new piece for the Call and Response exhibit that will be at ArtsWorcester next month. It is a show that is inspired by some great artifacts from Africa that are on loan from the Fitchburg Art Museum. And inspired I am. I have created what I think is a great sample piece of the larger one that I am planning on putting in the show. I am planning on making a whole new series based on this. I am so excited by this. Should be interested to find out more about the show or to be involved in the show please check out ArtsWorcester.

Co-Habitat Opening

This past Friday was the opening of  Steve's and mine exhibition at ArtsWorcester. It was amazing! The top picture is a group of people at the show and the bottom is of Steve and Me. We had a blast and it was great to see all the hard work everyone did come together. It looked amazing and all the stress was worth it. Thank you to everyone who came out and to ArtsWorcester and of course to Steve. I met so many great people and it was great to see so much of my work on display. And it was great to see all of Steve's work in one place. If you have not seen the show yet please do.
