Small Works & Trexlertown: Do You Know What These Have in Common?


Well, one opens on and one is held on Saturday, November 14th. Oh, and I'll be represented at both places...

I just dropped off five brand new just made for this show necklaces with miniature original watercolor paintings by Phil attached to them for the Small Works Show at Zuzu's Cafe in Beacon, NY. Wanna see them? Ok:



This came out a little too light on the painting. It's got a lovely orange sunrise color behind the trees. This painting is my favorite of the five and this picture does not show how amazing the painting is! The necklace is made with Brass that I handformed and linked with Baltic Amber, Citrine, Emerald, and Tourmaline gemstone chips. You can get it at the show for a mere $130.



This picture came out the best of all five. It really shows the color and detail of the necklace. Handformed Copper wire connected by handmade links of Brass with these gorgeous little laser cut Brass colored Copper beads at the center of each swirly chain section is what this is made of. Yours for only $125.



Squiggle. Pinks and blues and Brass and what is it? Even Phil doesn't know. The handformed chain is Yellow Brass, Rose Quartz and Blue Lace Agate though. The perfect piece for every pastel and pink lover. A unique look for only $105.




Cross, telphone pole? Phil won't say. We called it Pale T. This picture doesn't show the beautiful pale pinks and blues and greens washed across the painting though. It's really lovely. So I took some lovely Brass and linked the wire with White Topaz that's been dyed a pale blue. You should see this when the light hits it just right. It's stunning! Only at the Small Works Show. Just $95.




The colors came out pretty nice in this picture, though it's a little lighter than in person. Purples and burgundy, greens and blues. The necklace has all the same shades in Tourmaline handlinked with Brass wire. Get this at Zuzu's for $110.


Now that you've seen what I contributed; here's your official invitation to the show:



I won't be at the opening though because, I'll be in the Trexlertown Grange selling a bunch of other jewelry at the From Scratch Handmade Artists Market. There's going to be live music and baked goods there too! First one ever. And, your donation of canned food (for an entry discount) will be going to the Second Harvest Food Bank too. Have fun and get some charity on. That'll be over in the Trexlertown Grange. That's in Pennsylvania. Where all the hipster cool people will be in Trexlertown, PA this Saturday, natch.

Of course, that's a bit of a walk if you want to go to both, but at least you can go to Zuzu's another day for the five necklaces above - until they're sold or the show's over, whichever comes first...
