These past couple of months have been dense with 'stuff happening' (mostly life), and time has been of essence.
I have been drawn to making some quick pieces, relatively less time/tool-consuming and still granting some emotional and spiritual relief.
I dragged the recycled paper box next to the bench and looked into it.
I plucked out bits of saved carboard, old magazines paper cuttings and strips of random paper and came up with some magnets, or... more Recycled Paper Work!

Three big magnets are ready to stick to any metallic surface and hold some things in place.

Stained Brooches:
initial series from decades ago, stains and marks on silver, brass and copper.
some of these sold at jeweler's werk galerie/dc, but I can't remember when.
Stained Brooches:
all these pieces were very limited production, made just 4 of these, similar but all different, signed and dated on the back.
This is a flat donut shape in stained silver.
I know the w(h)earabouts of 2 of them, and I traded 1 for a beautiful dark red coat full of cut-out circles once with a fellow exhibitor at an American Craft Council Show in Baltimore.
One of the recent experiments, the Black+White Graffiti Jewelry line, is one-of-a-kind collection of 8 unique pieces, earrings and a couple of pendants.
Now my hands are itching.
I am playing around with initial tests on paper for a new series...
I cannot wait to put it all down on metal!

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.
