Here is my latest piece. I'm still working on a title.

I love Elaine Goodwin's work & style. Not that this is in any way as complex or sophisticated as her pieces, but I tried to use some of the elements and materials that she uses in this piece. I guess you could say it is "inspired by". I've done several "inspired by" pieces... guess I am still looking for my own voice. The material in this work is marble, smalti, & gold. It's a very simple piece, but I really like it.

I'm about to start on a piece that I started in a design class at SAMA last year. I'm still trying to finalize the design and materials I am going to use. But sometimes you just have to get started and see what happens!
