Pieces that only exist once in the world.
My beloved fairy necklace with earrings went to a client in Hollywood. Paper yarn in fairy green with Japanese glass art. Elaborately handmade. For people who dare.

I still make them today in several colours, but each one is unique. Why did I never made one for me?! 🤔

The necklace from the front is on a black display. The bundled strands of paper yarn gently encircle the neck, with flowers and leaves reaching into the décolleté.
Details of the flower, the leaves and some beads. It is very time-consuming to produce the open forms. You have to carefully twist the yarns backwards with your fingernails and open them before sculpting.

I have to close the studio window in this beautiful weather. There's no other way to convince my wonderful colleague, Her majesty Paper Wasp, that, although it would be an honour to have her found a state in my paper art studio, it would be rather unfavourable for her subjects to find food in here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_wasp

A dragon may seem a strange choice for a holiday card but, I had the design in my head and, it really wanted out. Oh, and January 28th begins the Year of the Wood Dragon in the Lunar calendar. The wood underwent some processing, first to become paper, then to become a dragon.

Today, two people in the field, whose judgement I take very seriously, told me that I am too far ahead of my time for our region with my workshop ideas. Over the turn of the year, I'm going to give serious thought to completely digitising that too. I'm too old to wait for the time to reach me. 😂 I better take time for the world. 😁 I laugh now but it's hard.

1/ O holy laziness! I decided not to go to the museum because rainy 14°C is not so much comfortable for sitting outside. I will enjoy the pleasant coolness in my studio before the heat returns. My excuse: So many for the exhibition in October are not ready yet. (Look on the hashtag for more). So I'm going to skewer species (don't worry, it's ).
