work in progress



photos of a few rings in progress...
more designs along the theme of astronomy and another that will likely have a butterfly perched on top -similar to one that sold to a dear friend on etsy, a while back. i just saw a beautiful grey, black and white butterfly land on a stone in the garden this morning-- i've never seen one like that in this region-- i took that as a sign!
i love the contrast between the roughness of just fired dirty metal-- and the transformation after the hard work of cleaning, polishing, and applying patinas... it's often hard to imagine what the finished pieces will look like ... i'll post them when they're finished-- for contrast.
