I receive a newsletter from Fire Mountain Gems because I order jewels there and in this weeks newsletter there was an artist highlight that is totally not my cup of tea but I just had to share it here.
Link to article here.I might mention that the part of the article that I find interesting is the materials she uses to make jewelry......Look under the question; What medium do you work with mostly? I remember my grandmother had pictures using real human hair behind glass in frames on her wall that came from some relative in Norway, and I kind of found that creepy. I do not think that I could wear jewelry that someone made from human hair. I most certainly wouldn't make jewelry out of my own hair even though I could probably clean enough out of my brush after I wash my hair and brush it out for a necklace. The picture that she submitted is made from her own hair and she says most of her inventory is made from hair extensions. Now this is what I call mixed media jewelry.........
