Snow in the spring



It feels like spring here, then we have days like today and it snows! The weather here has been very unpredictable lately wind, sun, snow, rain and hail all in one day.

My work seems to be saying it's spring, I've been drawn to bright colours and some whimsical birds. The little pair above have some soft shimmer in them and seem to be waiting for the cherry blossoms to open.

Blooms 5


Blooms 5 opens this week at Coast Collective. I have had a piece in each of these shows every year, it's my favourite Coast Collective show. The Victoria Flower Arrangers Guild does some arrangements they theme after an art piece and it's truly a stunning show.

The opening is March 23 from 2-4!

Gaffer Goodness


I torched a bit yesterday and an loving these Gaffer beads! I have co ordinating headpins too but they need to go in the tumbler still. i am thinking a bright piece might be in order for Sooke Fine Arts this year?

My hands held up pretty well, I didn't drop anything and had minimal pain and swelling. Today no torching, the specialist suggested not torching for days and days in a row.
