jewelry piece of the month


It is spring, it is wedding time, so I a am showing a non traditional 'bridal' piece.
Several strands of fresh water pearls, twisted, are held together by a sterling silver rose. The same rose is repeated on the earrings finished with dangling pearls.

'Hindsight'

I am still working on my series 'Hindsight', I finally finished another 4 pieces today. 
For the first time instead of brushing on the UV protection I sprayed the stuff on. For sure it is less work, faster and easier on my back. But the layers are thinner when spraying and I had to do more layers something I was not aware of before I started. I don't know at this point if I will use the sprayer again for smaller pieces, parts need to be cleaned, the compressor has to be dragged into the studio, work area has to be covered and lets not forget the VENTILATION!!!!! But for my bigger art work this is for sure the way to go. Besides it is anther nice use for my air brush.
