recent work

October and thus far November have been busy months for me. I've been spending a lot of time in my studio trying to replenish my inventory after the Local 14 show last month and working on a few commission pieces. I'm having a good time, but will have to emerge soon as the newest Harry Potter movie is now in the theaters!  I'm hoping my 19 year old will come with. If not, it won't be the first time I've sat alone in the movie theater watching a Harry Potter movie!





I've had so much interest in my raw diamond ring, that I made another. This time using a pretty white stone, and narrowing the band a bit.




I like this ring very much. I call it a Treasure Ring. It's a piece of Hell's Canyon herringbone petrified wood, a keshi pearl, and a small raw diamond.


 




 

A smaller, simpler ring, with a gorgeous red rutilated smokey quartz set in an 18kt bezel.





                          
                       Petrified palmwood. Love the black and white!




Nevada boulder turquoise with enough rust in the matrix that adding carnelian drops was an easy decision!











 And finally, another piece of the Nevada boulder turquoise, this time with a bit of a blush rather than the rust to it. A rather rustic piece, tamed a bit by the small pearl!
