Photek Digital Lighthouse

For some time now I've been struggling with taking pictures. After all, I want you to experience the best pictures possible. I originally purchased Photek Digital Lighthouse because the reviews were great but it was on backorder for FOREVER. So...I bought this other brand of lighthouse because I'm impatient. I was so disappointed AND it didn't take better pictures, at least not like I imagined. It immediately went back. Thank goodness they took it back.

So when the Photek digital lighthouse became available (only one) I snatched that baby up in a heart beat. I fantasized that I would be able to take wonderful pictures for you. Here is my first shoot with the Photek digital lighthouse.

What do you think? Digital lighthouse or not?

Digital lighthouse...Right?

I think the colors came out beautiful with the lighthouse but I'm biased. I'm liking this Photek digital lighthouse with Photek lamps. Finally a lighthouse worth buying! The earrings are exactly this color. I'm amazed.

The Risk to Bloom

It all started with an acorn button and grew from there. In an earlier post I mentioned this button swap blog hop, that I am participating in, and how I was immediately drawn to the acorn button. Every day I would hold it in my hand, feel its essence, exam it, and then put it down. This lasted for about 2 weeks. Then I remembered I had etched an oak tree on to brass when making buttons for my partner Kylie of Lotus Out Loud . And... so begins the journey of creating something with this wonderful acorn button, which only started yesterday. Haha! Etched brass was copper riveted to a piece of oak. Merci beaucoup Papi for finding some oak! I am using what Jesse taught me in his workshop . It was the first time trying his technique. It worked beautifully! The riveted brass was then captured with a piece of pierced copper. Voila! And then the day came when the risk to remain tight in...

Wabi-Sabiness

Hola everyone! New Orleans is hunkering down because we are about to get "Wintry Mix". Whatever that means and in south Louisiana we just do not know how to drive on ice and so great havoc ensues. The city has decided to shut down. I know...it's some crazy stuff down here! Anyways... my mother saw some stacking rings I made a couple of weeks ago and requested a set. So I sat in my studio and thought about texture and a word I wanted to inscribe. I meditated, sitting there in my chair, and spinning myself in circles until I got dizzy and had to stop. Oh wait...I digress. Back to the subject. My mind has been preoccupied with wabi-sabi lately and I thought that this is just befitting. My mom is totally sabi!!! I inscribed the word sabi inside of the silver ring and thus began my journey. Sabi means (in the most simplistic definition) the beauty or serenity that comes with age, when the life of the object and its impe...

Helloooo...Is Anyone Out There?

Yes I know. I have been off the blogger for awhile. I swear I've been working! ;) I have been busy trying to find my own path and I think I have finally found it. Ha! A lot of "I"'s in that sentance. So that being said, what exactly have I been doing? Participated in an Upcycle show at RHINO Gallery. In this show we were to use at least 75% recycled material. This piece was inspired by the 43 students of Ayotzinapa that were taken on September 27, 2014 and presumbly met a violent death at the hands of corrupt officials and a drug gang. . The initials of all 43 students were etched into the .38 caliber casing. I cried after comleting the piece. It was so powerful to me. Ghosts Designed and made earrings. Astro Earrings Sugar Skulls Did a commission. Comission Annnd made one big pendant. Louisiana Opal, sponge coral (grandma's), oxidized silver, 14KY, 22KY Am I having fun yet? ...
