Dreams of Pandora series

And here comes another finished UFO!

Have you seen Avatar the movie? If not - you should. Even if you are not into sci-fi, just go for the colors. It is such a treat for the eyes! Even if the scope is slightly primitive, the movie was spectacular. I mean SPECTACULAR. Be sure, it will be an endless source for your inspiration.

Honestly, I'v made drawings for this one even prior to the movie. But I just did not have inspiration to finish this piece. After seing the Avatar, I got a kick in my back.

I called this one Ancient Ritual. Still not sure if it should be fringed or not... Do not think so, actually.


Yes, one more thing... Guys making jewelry for sci-fi movies, I do envy you big time!

Deep Blue Sea - EBW

Pfew, it was a close shave this month, but I've finished the Challenge piece two days before the deadline.

The theme is "Ocean". Here are my waves. The original plan was to feature a large kyanite cabochon in the middle of the choker, and to make a wavy pattern on entire length of the necklace. It looked too busy and I had to cut it. The kyanite got replaced by a large Swarovski pendant, because the stone just did not want to play along with other crystals that I used to assemble the 3D RAW wave. It took a while to find a suitable ribbon... Then it was a long hunt for a clasp that I wanted to be sterling silver ribbon holder. Guess if I was glad to find it in France for couple of weeks ago. Did I get within three to five working days as was promised by the shop? Not really... So, I had to invent a wheal, in this case: clasp. Seen something similar once (work of Kristina Kristianson) and just borrowed the idea due to lack of time and inspiration.

Well, enough complaining - it actually does not look all too bad.
