LAYERS OF THE HEART


New work.  Abalone, coral.  6" x 5".  I became somewhat obsessed with  creating layer after layer of abalone, I finally had to stop. I am  leaning more and more toward sculptural work, and I'm percolating some ideas of 3D sculptures, organic in shape.  This piece will probably land in my Etsy Shop soon.

It's lovely. The free flowing heart shape suits the natural materials.

Thanks Mindful and Jaboopee for your nice comments! Jaboopee, I get most of my materials at gem and bead shows here locally.
