ArtLog: New Shinies
Greetings from snailsville. Here are your shinies of newness.




"Binding the Lightning" pendant: lampwork glass by Charlene Haycox, sterling silver. $85

"The Dragons of My Country Have Other Opinions" pendant: jasper, color-treated resin-encased cultured pearls, gold filled wire. $65

... "Message in a Klein Bottle" pendant: unknown stone that may be agate, cultured freshwater pearls, sterling silver. $40 SOLD

"My Lady's Clockwork Carriage" pendant: stone, color-treated freshwater cultured pearls, an old jewelry bit, sterling silver. $90

... "My Magic Is A Quiet Thing" pendant: unknown stone which is probably agate, and gold filled wire. $38 SOLD

... "The Oakwoman's Tale" pendant: apparently overdyed agate, color-treated cultured pearls, gold filled wire, dyed howlite nugget. $120 SOLD

"A Season For Ghosts" pendant: a wonderful slab of what was sold to me as serpentine, glass, gold filled wire. $110

... "She Is Risen" pendant: cultured slab pearl, glass, sterling silver. $75. And those little glass flowers are actually a blue-violet, despite what the photos and your monitor may imply. SOLD

... "What Pixies Do To Painters" pendant: apparently overdyed agate slab, gold filled wire, laughter. $48 SOLD

"Wm. Morris, Genie (His Bottle)" pendant: lampwork glass by Charlene Haycox, little purple glass flowers, colortreated freshwater cultured pearls encased in faceted resin, sterling silver. $95

...and a new (well, finally finished) blue and silver necklace-crown that's had somebody waiting for it for a while now, so it's on hold until I e-mail them and they tell me what they think.



As always, the only way to actually purchase one of these things is to send me email at gimme@lioness.net and tell me you want to buy one. We'll reply, and Daniel will send you a total. Now that I've told you that secret, feel free to comment here, safe in the knowledge that you can't accidentally buy something (or put dibs on it) just by remarking on it.

Shipping is usually $6.50 in the U.S. and Canada and $8.50 elsewhere in the world, unless things are especially heavy or want insurance or something. Ask Daniel for a quote if you need one; the gimme address above will reach him, or you can catch him directly at stitchandlioness@gmail.com.

Thanks for looking at my shinies.

Me too. I hope someone I know buys it, so I can see it sometimes.

It's spectacular. Spectral. I think it might secretly glow in the dark, when no-one's looking.

I really like the technique of visible stone, elaborate frame that you are using at the moment. So beautiful.
...though my particular favourites would have to be 'Message in a Klein Bottle'/'My Magic is a Quiet Thing'.

...and 'My Lady's Clockwork Carriage'. Which gives me the impression of leaf-springs, somehow.

These are all amazing. Everything you've been creating all winter has just blown me away-- it seems new, somehow, though I don't know if I could explain how. But it just keeps surprising me.

These are lovely, as always. I really need to figure out if any of my loved ones can hear their music.

Those are utterly lovely, although they speak to me about being for somebody else, if I could just listen well enough to hear whom...

I love all of this new work so so much. Different images guiding your hands, and we get to see what results -- thank you!

My magic is a quiet thing

My magic is a quiet thing
its message soft as bone
Its whispers hid among the noise
like snakes upon a stone

But sometimes, when I'm lost inside
my whirl of play and song,
it shapes the space between the notes
to say, "I'm here. What's wrong?"


(In other news, I am starting to wonder how poets ever manage without an Elise...)

Aww. Thank you.

But I am just one of many who carry the baskets and bowls, and give things rides to where they belong to be.

It's a good job, though. I will say that.

See, anything starting with these words, I'm not going to believe :)
I talk to lots of people. It's the inherent poetry of your pieces and their names that sets me off, and there's me following the thread...

The William Morris one is so beautiful! Well, they all are, but that's the one that made me go "oooh..."

Friend me and welcome, and thank you!

(I often am very slow to friend back, and have a million things to catch up on, so please understand that it doesn't necessarily signify if I don't friend somebody back, OK?)
