Back in the Studio

Finally got back in the studio this evening after taking a pretty long break. Since the Brookside Art fair I've been feeling really tired and a bit unmotivated to work but it is time to get back into a daily routine of making things.

This is a sterling bracelet that I made years ago and didn't like the way it turned out. I picked it up this evening and gave it a matte finish then thought that it might look cool with some disks of street sign riveted in between the hollow rivets. They are just taped on right now so i could get an idea of what it would look like. It happens quite a bit that I will make a piece, not like it, then pick up years later to change a bit and finish. So, never throw out a piece because it may just inspire you at another time.

Working on a completely new design of an alien head. This first one is going out to my friend Mac Tonnies. I hope to finish it this week , think it's looking pretty darn good so far!
