Lengthening Days

As the days grow longer

The storms grow stronger.

This is an assemblage made with found objects. I used metal hinges, vintage textiles remnants, and an image of a long ago girl that I altered with paint and ink. The glass orb has the words “strong winds” behind it. It has a tiny lock and key and wire to further embellish it. The work hangs from the muslin fabric tie.

The body of the work is 8 inches long and with the hanging ribbon it is 14 inches long

This steampunk necklace combines some unusual elements to create a steamy mood of mystery. It started with a wristwatch back plate to which I first added resin and watch parts before securely riveting it to an altered domino tile by fellow Etsy artist ingeniouslycreative. I especially wanted the eye to peer out of the back plate. There are 2 dangles for this one. The key, a familiar steampunk item has been wire-wrapped with a Swarovski rondelle and attached to the domino and the little crescent moon and star dangles gracefully from the watch piece. This pendant is on a 16" copper tone chain with a safety clasp. I am a trained, if somewhat steamy, silversmith and have built this piece to last.

some traditions never die. i've been doing these portraits w/ my 1st graders for about 13 years now. and every year i love them even more.

incase you don't know, the "100th day of school" is a big deal in most elementary schools. the kids celebrate and do lots of counting activities.

in art, we always do portraits. the kids imagine how they think they will look when they are 100. we embellish w/ gaudy jewely, flowers, wrinkles, grey hair and more.

we also attach a short story to them about what they'll do, where they will go, etc.

they are hilarious!! :) enjoy (and happy 102nd day of school! wooo!).
