Ideas, Distrations, Writing and Art
Welcome to my website. I lean left, over analyze, decide with logic over sentiment, embrace asymmetry, get the heebie jeebies, exercise too little and know my birth certificate lies. I am frequently distracted, fidgety, forgetful, or dazed and dismayed. I am an artist, dabbler, writer, web designer, and certified gadgophile. I have had as many as five blogs going at a time covering a wide range of subjects.
This current re-invention of the remaining two blogs (Fiery Heart Designs and Onedia in The Ozarks) is necessitated by the need for a more structured life both in my studio and in daily life. I work from my multi-media studio and occasionally from my chair in front of my favorite news channels.
Finishing Touches
Well, my new studio is 90% completed and I am moving in. Plenty of changes to tell about including a new location showing my jewelery and some new and wonderful artist friends. I will be back soon to tell all the news. Meanwhile enjoy this peek into my studio.
The Story of My Bracelets
My staple always-sell pieces are bracelets using memory wire, a stiff wire that retains its circular shape,and beads. For some reason women really love them and are willing to pay $35 to $50 for one. They are comfortable and easy to wear. The technique for making the bracelets is very easy and usually takes about two hours. Simply cut the wire, make a loop with pliers at one end, slide the beads onto the wire, finish with another loop. The real work is in creating a one of a kind unique piece each time.
