This painting is a gift for my Grand-daughter. She turned 14 last week. She redecorated her room with two colors of pink and accessorized with zebra items. I designed a hooded jacket for the painting so it will complement her room.

My New Necklace Model.


I bought this stand at a garage sale many years ago. Through the years it has been used for different things. Most recently it was by my dressing table area with necklaces draped over it. I decided to change it up a little and use it for my necklace model. I think this is going to work out well. Below is a photo of her fist modeling job. Perhaps I should give her a name. I'm open for suggestions.
Now I have to find something to use for a hand model to display my rings.

Fused Black Glass Necklace


I had a request for a plain black glass necklace. This necklace is fused black on black glass.

Black Glass Ring Mounted on Silver Plated Copper


Adjustable black glass ring mounted on silver plated copper which goes with the above necklace.

This is painted on a 10" by 14" canvas over a 16" by 20" canvas glued together. I used acrylic paints. The ice cream and cherry on top is plaster. The fudge frosting is a glass paint. The dishes are melted glass dishes. Black ribbon is glued around the sides of the canvas to cover the staples. I try to get the hidden stapled canvas whenever I get the chance. Sometimes the hidden stapled canvases in certain sizes are not available. The spoons are real coffee spoons. The cherries on the side of the bottom canvas are glass with elastomeric custom patch as the stems. A plastic bag is used to squeeze the patch in the stem form after I mixed some acrylic green paint with it.
