Weekly Challenge - I

when i first came up with the challenge word for inspiration avenue’s weekly challenge this week, i pride myself for choosing the easiest word ever … “I”. how can anyone go wrong with “I”? basically you could create anything about you, as long as it’s connected to you in some way, that’s it! i thought, ahhhh … anyone can do this one :)

well, i was wrong! when the time came for me to come up with something, my brain was a white space. now … i really thought that i was going to end up doing “i am blank” ugh!!

the pressure was on, so i thought hard. i tried to find one word that could describe me? after a while, i realized that i couldn’t. am i that complicated? nope, i’m just unpredictable. i could be this and/or that, here and/or there, or everywhere (i mean, my thoughts are just everywhere … scattered!) ... then, a light bulb went on! of course i’m unpredictable !!!!!

I am Pisces! and proud of it!

i hope i have successfully created a digital collage that shows my extremities. i used the concept of light and dark, yes … once again :) i used 2 pieces of my jewelry, one gothic, the other elven, to symbolize this. and of course, i had to use shade and light.
*i should mention that the painting of the fishes is NOT my work … it comes from a site call artgame.com

and since i’m at this, let me also show you 3 new necklaces i created.

Heart of Florence …

this is a custom commission for a friend. the heart shaped bead is polymer clay, fashioned using the mokume gane technique, an ancient technique of imprinting, layering and slicing that was developed by the metalsmith for casting precious metal jewelry. and now this technique has been adapted by the polymer clay artists for polymer clay.

Isabella …

a gothic piece, inspired by vampires, twilight and isabella swan ;)

Aphelle ...

this must be one of my favorite pieces! and if you realize, this is the piece i chose to symbolize 'light' in my digital collage.

“Born in the realms far beyond the reaches of man, Aphelle was manifested when the Sorceress and the Alchemist, the Seeress and the Astrologer came together in communion. The fate of mankind as foretold by the Seeress and seen in the night skies by the Astrologer, was to be kept in an amulet, fabricated by the Alchemist. This amulet not only exudes beauty, it is also the key to this ancient secret. And the Sorceress … she was assigned to be Keeper of Aphelle, until the time comes when the fate of mankind would be determined by the unlocking of Aphelle … “

happy pimping! :)
