Designing Mescalero Jasper and Pearl
Feb. 15th, 2021 02:34 pmI was surprised to realize that the jasper and the very delicate pearl are being designed at the same time.
The jasper is about 2.5" and the pearl perhaps .75". I'm going to design both of them in bronze,
..
They are beautiful is such different ways. The jasper is for a commission. The pearl is (I think) the first of a small group of one-of-a-kind pearl and bronze small pendants.
It's very unusual for me to be thinking about two such dissimilar pieces with the same design sense. They will look related but not alike in design. I'll be really interested to see how this develops.
When eventually the pandemic is over I think I'll be able to look back and have a sense of how it affected my design sense. Aside from the obvious influence of my Pandemic Shadow photos.
