trees

This is one of my tree prints that I framed (I think it cost me $13 with the mat and frame- better than the $90 the other cost). I am going to put some of these prints in my etsy store at some point- I'm trying to work out the best way to photograph them. Scanning them makes them look too flat.
And this little tree made it on to a brooch. I've done a couple of other ones as necklaces and a smaller brooch, but I was having trouble getting the photographs right- the sun was too glaring, so I'll have to do these another day.
And here's all my brooches so far. There was a store closing, so I was able to get some cheap things to display my jewellery.
Oscar is having his 16th birthday party tomorrow (and yes, after days of gorgeous-'though hot- weather, it's forecast to thunderstorm all day tomorrow). Been trying to get things ready for that. He hasn't had a birthday party in nearly 5 years, so I'm glad he agreed to one this year. It's a tricky time of year to organise anything.

  1. Photograph it without the glass in for display purposes. Good fun broaches,of course, but my experience is selling art via the internet in whatever form doesn't seem to work, and I found that out after spending more than a bit on my web page.
    Will facebook Oscar for his birthday.
    love
    Dad, the semester is nearly over
