today i made a little caged bird pendant with a scripture , Matthew 6:26 on it

some of my work...

I made the wings from a sheet of bronze with my hand Jewelers saw, then plated it in 18k
gold, and added a wire wrapped crystal. I love the way the crystal glows from the flash.
the back ground is a mixed media painting I created.

Hello, Is this thing on?  This is my first attempt at blogging.  I'm not sure who i'm talking to just yet :)
I'm an artist!  There I said it.  It took me 51 years to be able to say that.   Now here I am knowing what I love to do, and must do, but I have no idea how to make a living from it.  Mixed media .. resin, metal work, Jewelry, oils and arylic.. all things ART, colors, textiles they all  call to my spirit.  This all consuming passion is currently keeping me from things i need to do such as long walks with my dogs and caring if my socks match.   More later.. I have to go create something!
