i doodle in spirals... and while i did just figure out how to fuse copper wire, the bracelets i am making are open, unraveling, breaking free...
padre bead from the 1800s was used as a trade bead... raku by mak at maku studio... old and new, experiences gained, paths taken and yet to take...
resin paddle with 'love' on it... blue encased glass that pulls you into it's depths by mika at pinocean...
they say you should put out into the universe that which you want...
WOW,I love these. So awesome:)
ReplyDeleteI love these pieces, especially the first one.
ReplyDeleteThe open ended circle...not stuck in a rutt...free to explore new paths. Wonderful pieces!!
love the bracelets
ReplyDeletea bangle type is always appealing ,but it seems i tend to perfer an open one, something nice about not having to squeeze your hand thru.
GORGEOUS - I especially love the second one with the fused copper & the wire work. Just beautiful!

This is wonderful! Love the texture to it, and the weight. I love spirals too! Take care, Riki
ReplyDeleteThat last one makes me swoon with delight, MJ. And your words swirling around them so free and full of meaning are what draws me in and grabs hold of my heart. You inspire me.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the day!
