Saturday we got together to create. I get to the lake and find Gail is still in town running errands ( as referenced above life and duties can get in the way). I had packed my jewelry making supplies with two projects to work on. So I sat at her cast iron table overlooking the Seneca Lake and beaded happily until a spider dropped on my head. I couldn't even scream and run as I was in the middle of crimping the the toggle on.
We had been at the Manayunk Art Festival the weekend before and on the way back from Philidelphia to Upstate NY we stopped in Jim Thorpe, PA and had a break from the drive. We found a wonderful pendant Pietersite and silver. It has a wonderful hologram effect with copper, blasck and gray colors.
The other piece I worked on was a mixed metal clay piece made with my sister Lucy of Lucy Ellen Design. It was an Owl face with two metals so I used metal findings with 3 colors and colored pearls-gold, magenta, green. I had a fun stone piece that was oddly shaped but when placed with the owl made it look like a winged body. In the pictures are some of the fun owl pieces I have collected since being a Chi Omega Omicron Chapter U.C. Davis. The background original art work was by Gail Walker,
