Had a fabulous time yesterday in Toronto at the One-of-a-Kind Show with my good friend Trisha.
So many artists with really innovative work! I especially enjoyed the work of Alison Terp, Michele Rose, Rudy Kehkla and Sharon Nowlan along with many others. I came back with a great deal of inspiration and lots of ideas for my own artwork.

New Shapes!
Just deciding on colour today for some new pendants and earrings I made yesterday. I've been stuck on greens and blues lately. Hmmm...what to do?

Wildlife Weekend
I'm just getting around to posting these shots of our Sunday drive, this past wekend. As you can see, the wildlife was out in full force and it was great to see.
Just Another Glamorous Day in the Workshop!
Hard to tell if I'm going in to surgery or actually getting some work done. The cute plastic shower cap is not entirely necessary - just to protect clean hair from tripoli and rouge. So cute - NOT!

Textured Painting
Yes, I know I make jewellery, but I wanted to try my hand at Paul Bozzo's cool textured painting technique. See his videos in previous post. I have a long way to go but I have to tell ya - this is really fun!!
I can't wait to experiment with more colours and different textures.
