The 2010 Studio Art Sale offers affordable works in a variety of media including painting, sculpture, printmaking, jewellery, photography, glass, ceramics and textiles compositions by Western Canada’s leading and emerging artists and designers. This event offers new and emerging artists the opportunity to present their works to a much broader audience. Over 100 artists are represented this year!

50% of the proceeds support Triangle Gallery’s art exhibitions and education programs. With your support today there will be a Triangle tomorrow!

i've been working my tush off getting ready for the fall show, but i'm happy to say i have 16 new pieces on display at this show. hope you can make it out!

can coughing be fatal?

well, months have gone by and i always say i'm going to post more often and somehow i never manage to. seemingly the only thing to slow me down enough to spend quality time on the computer is a cold. and its a doozy. pretty sure i need that chunk of lung i just coughed up, but what's a girl to do? hopefully you are having a better weekend than i. but i'll be back in the studio starting this week, as the kids are back to school, and will have more blingy loveliness to show you soon. stay well!

Winners!

WOW! what a great show! great peeps, great sales, even great weather :) thank you to everyone who came out!! and congratulations to the winners of the $20 gift certificates.

Lana C., Pat C. and Eve D., your g.c.'s are already in the mail!

Another Layered Ring

my new fave ring! and as you can see its quite a bit larger than the others :) we'll see if i part with it for the spring show (may 1st for those in the area who'd like to mark their calendars). i could seriously make this line all day, every day! so fun. hopefully i can get some wicked new gift cards in japan!

New Mini Mongos

in addition to the new line, i've been expanding the granulated lines too. these are a new twist on the mini mongos which sprang from the full granulated necklace (affectionately named the mongo :) i wanted to make some that had a more vertical feel and less horizontal action. the first one also has 3 disks featured within the chain. enjoy and have a great weekend!

Obsessed

i have become completely obsessed with this new line! in a good way. i hope :) two more pendants, some charms, earrings, cufflinks and another ring all waiting to be photographed! until then, here are a few more pendants....

New Pendants Pt. 2

here are three more of my new multi-layered pendants. each one uses sterling silver, anodized aluminum and recycled gift cards. i'm going to have a hard time letting some of these go!

by popular demand here are photos of the rings instead of more pendants. more pendants later! all three rings are layers of sterling silver, anodized aluminum and recycled gift cards. and each is one-of-a-kind. sorry these pix are a little darker than usual, but i was losing the light (i prefer natural sunlight as a rule). cheers!

full frontal view

these rings feel great on. nice thick band and a really comfortable weight due to the multiple layers of metal and plastic.

New, new, new!

i have been frantically getting ready for my spring show on may 1st. it may seem far away, but i'll be away for 2 weeks over spring break and am therefore panicking as usual. this is a new line that will debut at that show. each pendant is layered with recycled gift cards, anodized aluminum and sterling silver and then riveted together. i'm having a lot of fun with them and just finished some rings tonight that turned out great! may have to make some more of those :) more pix tomorrow. there are currently 10 pendants and 3 rings, all of which are one-of-a-kinds. have a great week!

Cupcakes!

my friend and fabulous local foodie, Julie Van Rosendaal, challenged me to come up with some food-related jewelry. since i have a notorious sweet tooth, it was either donuts or cupcakes. and even though donut sprinkles would have been an interesting challenge i went with a cupcake. this pendant measures 1.5" in diameter and is made with sterling silver, anodized aluminum (in chocolate brown even though it looks darker in the picture) and a recycled gift card. fun, colorful and fewer calories than the real thing!

Beautiful Baldies

check out my amazing kids who shaved their heads on friday in support of kids with cancer!

Phoenix Baby!

i feel like i'm back in university, cramming for a studio art project! i really must learn to stop leaving things to the last minute (yea right!). these lovely bits are for an enameling class i'll be taking on saturday in phoenix. in mesa actually, but close. why am i flying all the way to phoenix for an art class that i could surely take in calgary? well, the class is being taught by my good friend jewel clark (yes, her name really is jewel!), a fellow university of texas metals graduate. we get to visit after many, many moons and i get to take a class that i've been interested in for almost as long. will have more pix on monday-ish, have a great week!

Extended Tree Series

these are an extension of the tree series. the color disks are anodized aluminum that have been riveted to the silver bit. contact me for purchase availability. cheers!

And Yet a Few More...

And More New Collage Pendants

you've seen this one before, but it was a crappy photo!

my all-time fave and of course its the one that sold :)

the tag on this one reads 'dance'

More Collage Pendants

just a couple of the collage pendants that made their debut at the group show. all the collage pendants are reversible (with painting on the backside) and are made with wood, acrylic paint, recycled gift cards and sterling silver.

couple more tomorrow.....

Ballad

This is a teaser from Maggie Stiefvater's BALLAD, a novel involving homicidal faeries and kissing that's coming out October 1st.

He turned towards me. For a long moment, he stood facing me. I was held, anchored to the ground – not by his music, which still called and pushed against the music already in my head and said grow rise follow – but by his strangeness. By his fingers, spread over the ground, holding something into the earth, by his shoulders, squared in a way that spoke of strength and unknowability, and most of all, by the great, thorny antlers that grew from his head, spanning the sky like branches.

Then he was gone, and I missed his going in the instant that the sun fell off the edge of the hill, abandoning the world to twilight.
