And small really invites me in - it draws my eye in in an intimate way - like what is going on there. The 'buttons' look great and have heaps of potential in pieces. Go well.

The...Oh, I do think you have this absolutely right. The big picture and the details are really one and the same. I also like making pieces without worrying about what it might grow up to be. It really is a kind of meditation when you just flow with the work at your finger tips. The layering in these buttons is wonderful. It makes me want to hold them and examine them to look and excavate the layers.

I'm about to try to sell my very first few pieces of mixed media jewelry this coming weekend, only seven pieces, and wonder if people will "get it" enough to not undersell myself too much. Will they look for the details? I sure hope so. The details are what makes it art! I love yours! I'm not at your level yet. Thank you so much for sharing, and railroad ties.....??? You really have me wondering there!<br />CecileCecile Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10012792041395787864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-799222218834967125.post-25489626900115473412012-03-27T16:26:51.345-04:002012-03-27T16:26:51.345-04:00Thank you for a beautiful post.
