Autumn Leaves
So dear friends, I’ve been away and obviously not blogging like I should. Here is a commissioned piece I’ve just finished of a very large Norwalk Maple leaf spirit. The leaf measures 6″ x 7″ and is done in the warm, subtle colors of Autumn. Enjoy!
Dragonfly Visitor
I spent a most enjoyable day with Peter today in my yard, he lounging, watching the races, and I working on some new leaf pieces. I kept hearing something hit the screen house and every time I’d look up nothing would be there so I’d go back to work again. This went on for quite [...]
Sylvan Sprite Earrings
Sylvan sprite’s will love to add these to their wardrobe this Spring! A recent foray into the forest produced some gorgeous imprints of Silver Maple leaves from which these luminous earrings were created. Hand sculpted leaves of Kato clay cured, hand buffed, antiqued, and accented with mica powders. The earring wires are fancy copper and [...]

It seems that while she was picking the berries she pricked her finger on the [...]
New Leaf Ornaments

For the past year I’ve tried to do my art full time and although I’ve definitely made forward progress, I can’t keep up with the economy, so off I’ve been to job hunt. Tedious, boring…necessary. Anywho, here are three new [...]
Lady of the Woods
Thought I’d post a few pictures of a piece I’m working on. I went for a walk yesterday and found some beautiful Birch tree and Silver Maple leaves to imprint. I have a few more tweaks to do, then I’ll create the bail and necklace pieces. I also decided to do reversible leaf pendants, for [...]
