ArtLog: new work

"Brother Moonlamp's Tale" necklace: medium length (over the head, no clasp), yellow metal; pale matte and shiny glass beads in blues, lavenders, green, and other colors, including some spiral beads and some lovely furnace glass triangular tube beads and some small pale blue hearts'ease (pansy) flower beads

"Brother Moonlamp and the Dragon" necklace: medium length (over the head, no clasp), yellow metal; beads like the necklace above, but adding some vivid sapphire blue crystal and spiral and other beads to the mix

in progress: "The Five Sorrows of Brother Moonlamp" necklace, which takes the mix down into the dark blues and black with AB (aurora borealis shimmer); this necklace is on wrapped sterling silver wire, so it will be more work and more expensive, but I think it will turn out well. It should be sufficiently long that a person could wear it as a belly necklace if a person wanted to, too.

The previously mentioned ones in progress are still. "Evensong" is one of them, and there are several others. And I am eyeing some pearls speculatively and thinking about pearl and sterling bustiers.

It would be nice if you could post pictures of the items you mention. Do you have any friends with digital cameras?
