The Rebirth Series: for Reserve


RESERVED

I cannot even find the words to say how this piece was born, save that it felt like the best of being a conduit for something beyond what my hands could previously do.

Moments like these are the rebirth
.the re-believing.
.the fill-up.
.


The hours that went into this heirloom miracle can barely be counted they were so many...I burned the midnight and the dawnlight oil to create this piece. 


From ring end to ring end it is twenty nine inches, which means that the waist it will grace must be at least thirty  or more in measurement.


On the female body it emphasizes the cinch of the waist and the curve of the breast.


It is organic and va-va-voom all at once, a riotous celebration of all things vernal.

To complement the belt, I made a few other floral pieces that (unlike the belt) can fit easily into a pocket or a budget: little luxuries.


For the Metal Shop there are two pairs of watercolor on enamel pussywillow earrings in ombre rose and ombre amber.

All of this work carries in its little molecules the 
freshness of a Northern California spring
and the promise of complements and admiring glances.
