Miss Florence's Tree

Each year new artists are asked to do a palette for the Florence Griswold Museum.
I was so excited to be a part of it this year.  
For my palette , I used acrylic paint, (the first time for me) and had fun making this red: layers upon layers.  Then I drilled holes in the palette.  I rolled lots of pieces of sterling wire through the rolling mill.  Then I pierced them through the palette.

I heated the other end of the wires with a torch to secure the pieces. The delicate sterling wires dangle and shimmer.    Check out Miss Florence's Tree at the Florence Griswold Museum

Here is my Sterling Palette.
See you at the party!  Thursday, Dec 2nd 5:30-7:30  for tickets

Impression Series

On display in the store, I have a little show of my Impression Series.  

Here is an example of  Marsh Grass.

I am drawn to the linear quality of the grass and the way it 

moves with the wind. I  pressed a piece of the grass into the sterling to 

create the texture on these bracelets.  The delicate line and gesture of the grass
is captured in time! This is a fun process because it is so 

fleeting and you never know what you'll get, the metal and the 

grass simultaneously move so it is left to chance.

Matta Scarves

These luxurious, soft silk scarves/shawls by Matta are here, 

come and cozy up in one!  The subtle colors and the fun pom-poms 

are worth a visit.  I carried Matta, many years ago in my shop.  

Now the line is well known and collected.  

It's great to see how artists have grown and developed over 

the years and be able to be a part of that and support them.

Happy Fall
