Crazy Wild & Wonderful necklace! I can just see it on a fabulous little black dress making a statement. Hope everyone enjoys it & appreciates it! Lynne
I made an armature for each piece, too.
I made some antlers out of polymer before I tried the coral. It took me forever.
But by the time I'd finished all the coral branches, I could whip up an armature so quickly, it was scary!
When I first started working with polymer, I was juried into exhibitions across the country. For awhile, my work was represented by a few dozen galleries across the U.S. After all the economy crashes, I pulled back from wholesale, as so many of my galleries hunkered down, and several went out of business.
I've mostly concentrated on the retail galleries connected with the League of NH Craftsmen, sold at their annual fair. Now we're getting ready to move to northern California, so everything's on hold. But I submitted 3 exhibit pieces to the annual fair (no booth this year). This necklace will be featured in the jewelry & accessories exhibition, and the two assemblages below in the furniture/home decor exhibition.
It was a slow but steady sell here in New England--took folks awhile to get on board with the prehistoric ponies! Now I'm sadly leaving behind a wonderfully supportive & loyal following. Not sure what California holds for me, but can't wait to find out!
