Another month almost gone, so much on the bench, having a hard time splitting myself between the (ohh, too many!) things in progress in trays, scattered all over the studio. But this is an ongoing-mode, as I seem not to be able to avoid it...wanting to do it all, yesterday. Today some quick notes on my studio treasure hunts of old work, have been re-shooting each single piece and adding some 'contest' and settings as visual connections... One of the WATER pin set, hand scribblings on silver, pinned to my black woolen sweater and a book that connects the two. I have recurring themes, sudden yearnings of making things done before, visual references and source of inspiration for the new. Pre-launched five pieces for the Black+White Artico show ending this month with great response, above a quick shot of the Black and White Graffiti Earrings 5 - one of the pieces still available at the show, as of today.
Got very excited about this new work, so have added another tray to my pile...got some new chain for some new pendants for the graffiti series...will see how fast I can clone myself. 13 magic days until the end of a successful Black+White show, and just in case (just in case) you missed it so far, check it out now! These earrings sold a couple of days ago and have gone to two very happy people... ...but there are still a few one of a kind pieces available, like just one pair of the earrings below!  Black+White Graffiti Earrings I had great fun playing around and improvising with these first black and white jewelry experiments for a BlacK+White Graffiti series, and was happy to launch five pieces on Artico this month! And, among what's left, a pendant too...  Black+White Graffiti Pendant#2 Signed and numbered, on the other side.
These go back a long while...1990, to be precise. The writing on metal is not completely new to me, like these fun experiments with scribbling and marking and punching brass, copper and sterling silver into wearable wall pieces. So pulled out these out of storage and thinking (maybe) of putting them on the online store later this summer. Each set is 3 wearable brooches, each one you can wear on yourself for a very sculptural and unique jewelry statement. When not on the body they are a stunning piece for the wall in an art-loving home.  Water: a 3-pins wall piece in sterling silver and brass, with scribbling, green patina on brass and random piercings.  Earth: a 3-pins wall piece in hues of copper and brass, with scribbling and random piercings.
The Black+White show at Artico is live! Another quick preview here below, a one-of-a-kind pair of Black+White Graffiti Earrings, signed and numbered on the back. The Black+White Graffiti is a mini series of One of a Kind jewelry pieces in sterling silver with a stained black patina finish. See more at the show!

jewelry notes from the bench
Hi, welcome to my jewelry blog!
I make simple, colorful and bold jewelry for a contemporary ageless and fun style. Have been doing this for quite sometime...pretty sure this is what I want to do when I grow up! Here I jot down thoughts and notes and pictures of work in the making, both in my mind, on paper and on the bench. for bench updates and exclusive previews... archives
