One of the most common questions I get asked at shows is "How long did it take to make that?" Well, it's complicated, because I tend to work on at least a dozen pieces all at once, usually one or two showcase pieces, plus some earrings and cuff links to fill it all in.
But to give you a sense of the time it takes, I spent 5 hours bending the wires for the single dragon necklace shown in the above image. I'm pretty psyched about it- I used 24K gold wires, and it's going to be a brilliant red dragon. If all goes well, it should be complete by the time I go to the American Craft Council Show in Baltimore in February. I will keep you posted!
Also, here are some highlights from last years work that I totally meant to put on my blog, but never really got around to it. It's way more fun to make art than to blab about it online, but I've resolved to be better about it in 2012. Seriously. :P
