Evocative Objects: March 2012
http://evocativeobjects.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 30, 2012. Flotsam and Jetsam, again. I'm currently working on a project proposal, that would allow me to focus on making a series of neckpieces that would highlight the flotsam and jetsam. Washed up on Rhode Islands beaches. I'll be focusing on Rhode Islands top five beaches that gross the most amount of trash, rearranging the detritus and making laser-cut neckpieces of the silhouettes. Here's a work in progress:.

Evocative Objects: She's Making Jewelry Now...
http://evocativeobjects.blogspot.com/2012/02/shes-making-jewelry-now.html
Sunday, February 19, 2012. She's Making Jewelry Now. This video is kind of embarrassingly accurate in that it nails people perceptions of what a 'jeweler' is. Oh, how strikingly different things are in my studio from what this video depicts! But, it's still pretty funny. enjoy! February 19, 2012 at 2:14 PM. Thanks for sharing that, it made me laugh, it made me (almost) cry. It is, as you said, embarrassingly accurate. I hope thats not what people think I do. March 1, 2012 at 12:00 PM. My name is Islay.
