Sometimes things don’t sell, or they break when they get dropped in a shop and can’t be sold. I have a small collection of work that fits into these categories, sitting here waiting for inspiration to strike. Yesterday I noticed these pieces, and I started wondering what I could do with them. Stay tuned….
Another bracelet ready to go to @tartscollective this weekend. I am heading to Adelaide soon, going to visit some of my favourite places including the Art Gallery! I am looking forward to seeing the Yayoi Kusama exhibition. I love how she uses dots in her artwork. Dots are one of my favourite glass bead-making techniques.
A celebration of spring on a winters day here, I am hopeful of warmer weather rolling in soon, longer days and flowers blooming. But for now, this bracelet. I am making a small collection of assorted bracelets to take to @tartscollective at some stage over the weekend.
I have quite a selection of beads leftover from my SALA exhibition and I am starting to make some new bracelets with them. I love the mix of reds and blues in this one.
Happiness for the first official day of spring! These little birds with red wings were inspired by the Peace Window at All Souls Church where I have just packed up my SALA exhibition! Another wonderful opportunity, thank you @salafestival for providing artists with an opportunity to share their work.
I am the artist in the window at @tartscollective today! If you are out and about visiting @salafestival exhibitions tomorrow, I will be at All Souls Church for their final day from 1-4pm.
I have thoroughly enjoyed every part of this years SALA exhibition. From planning and designing, to making beads and jewellery, and then displaying my work in the beautiful All Souls Church in St Peters. I hope you have had a chance to see the exhibition, it closes on Sunday and the final part of the process will be packing up and seeing what has sold and what is left to take to @tartscollective !
A long necklace featuring beads from my 1,000 glass beads project, all of them have a red aspect to them. Love the versatility of this style. My SALA exhibition closes Sunday at 4pm. I hope you have had a chance to see the beautiful church it is happening in. Big thank you to All Souls Church for the amazing venue.
Two more red necklaces that feature in my SALA exhibition at All Souls Church. The exhibition is open today from 1-4pm.
I made 12 necklaces for my SALA exhibition at All Souls Church. Inspired by the angels with red wings in the beautiful William Morris windows, I love the little bird with red wings! The exhibition is open at various times this week, details on the SALA website.
