Recent Wedding Commission

These here are not quite the final version...I must still have those last pics on my phone...

I started here with a classic underpainting in grey tones only, then layered on the colors.


Henna'd Feet


I absolutely love the art and practice of henna. Since I missed Burning Man this year and we had some hot days here in the Bay Area, I decided to henna my Mom for the first time and then I used up the last of my henna supply on my feet (seen here).

I was very impressed with this henna powder. It stained very well in spite of the paste having been from a couple years ago...granted, I kept it frozen that whole time...but I had thought that a year max was how long it would keep, even frozen. The long storage wasn't intentional - I just turned up a lost cone of the stuff I must have forgotten about ages ago.

Photos of "Flowers" in low-light
























Pictures of one of my works temporarily hanging in the home of a friend. They had a vase of the same flowers depicted, so I just had to snap some shots.

Desert Wings (still in progess)


These are going to look so amazing on someone at Burning Man...

Baby Wings





Faerie Wings



Earrings
































More "leather feathers," like those on the wings; these are small enough to allow greater detail, delicacy and texture to come into play...and they ARE playful, aren't they?

They are so much fun to make, sitting in my studio, or in front of the TV as I hang out with my Mom (side note: what does it say about Television today when I require a secondary activity to keep me amused in front of it).

I keep TRYING...really, I do...to produce more than one pair of a design, but so far my imagination has not run out of more exciting things to do. ;)

Retail $25-$40
