My main focus at home these days has been to get into cleaning my house, sorting out old magazines, art books, jewelry books, books everywhere. I love books but this has to a stop, I have to get organized. I have a pile of magazines, especially Arts of Asia publications, that becomes my source of inspirations. And so, it is at this point, that I stop my frenetic organizing to look through a magazine here and there, destroying my focus of cleaning and organizing. Being back in my creative mode is by far the better place for me to be.I created this design from a samurai sword hilt, called a tsuba. This'll be the first of many I'm sure. I like to think that it goes along with my own "warrior" mode, at least I think I am sometimes. Ha!
This piece is made of Precious Metal Clay and measures about 1 1/2 inches in diameter with cubic zirconias around it. And, I have another one that I just finished that's in the tumbler. Stop by the gallery to see it - it's for sale!
