Here’s a few more of my soldered jewelry pieces. These are done on 2×2 squares of cut glass instead of microscope slides. I use the same process of making a small piece of collage art, sandwiching it between the glass and then soldering around the edges. For more info see this earlier post of mine: http://www.pisforpaper.com/?p=16
This one is a fairy, I used an image of a girl and mounted wings behind her, it’s on an old book page, text is from an old book as well. I added a silver charm to dangle from the bottom on a jump ring.
Here’s a fairy Queen in her crown, I like the star charm at the botton, it’s made of stone:
I wanted to do a piece that had some humor to it, I think of her as an older lady on the stage trying to recapture her youth.
I LOVE Alice in Wonderland, it influences alot of my work, if even in just small subtle ways. This piece is actually stamped, the image of Alice is a rubber stamp I colored with pencils, the postage mark is stamped directly on the glass with Staz-On ink.
All of these pieces are currently for sale, $12 each. E-Mail me at: heavens_40517@yahoo.com if you’re interested in purchasing one.
