I'm in Love With Metal!

Yes, it's true...I've had a long love affair with metal in all forms, most recently with wire--silver wire, copper wire, colored artistic wire, any kind of wire.  I've long worked with sheet metal to incorporate it into my jewelry and other artwork.  Recently I began embossing and painting metal, and it's my new playground for color!

The possibilities are endless, and I just keep playing...can't seem to help myself.  This weekend I made a pair of lightweight earrings just bursting with color.  Combined the painted, embossed metal with silver....




I was just thrilled with how these earrings turned out!!!!  The design looks like stained glass to me and combines the purples, teals and maroons that I love.  The earrings are quite long and bold, and I think I'll be working on more new designs!


Wishing you all a great week....see you on Wednesday,

Deborah
