A Journey with Leaves
Summer is coming to an end and once more we begin to turn inward here at Elysian Field Originals with an eye to nesting for the winter. Leaves are already beginning to fall and I’ve collected quite a few from the area here in Rhode Island, as well as Maine. The recent hurricane, Irene, wreaked [...]
Nature Spirit Pendant
A little bit of Nature to take along and wear! Sugar maple leaf measures 3 1/4" L x 2 3/4" W with face of the nature spirit that resides within. Painted in layers to give the subtle manifestation of the emerging spirit, and sculpted using a beautiful mix of Kato clay, I have added a [...]
