Geodes have long fascinated me. I have a drawer full of beautiful geode slices. They make beautiful jewelry, but I hate to drill holes in them for fear of ruining them. This geode slice had an interesting hole in the middle. I love its blacks and grays with just a spot of red. As a pendant, there needed to be an interest in the center of the pendant. The red spot suggested Poppy Jasper and the gray suggested hematite so I hung a dangle there with a silver wire.
The pendant is strong and putting it on a sterling chain or a single beaded wire made it look wimpy. When I tried dual hematite wires that joined through a Jasper bead and added sterling spacers, the necklace began to take shape. It was not easy, but I think the handsome results made it worth the effort. |

After we were settled comfortably in Sandton, in the north suburbs of Johannesburg, and with Peggy working long hours at the bank, I fell into a routine. I was the house husband doing the cooking and shopping, and painting on the patio until mid-afternoon. I usually went to the gym around 3:00 PM where I worked out for an hour. Then I would pick up Peggy and go home to prepare dinner. Following this routine I painted the 16 acrylics shown on this website over a period of ten months. At that time I had no ambitions of selling my works in galleries or on the Internet. I had never painted with acrylics before and was just interested in learning the medium. |
