Jewelry
As a visual artist I seem to generate a lot of scrap paper and I hate to see it wasted. Sometimes it’s a colorful scrap of watercolor paper from a not-too-wonderful painting, or trimmings from the edges of my prints or a bit of mat board. And then of course there are all those colorful pages from magazines and catalogs … all paper just crying for a new life as something useful.
In the interest of being ecologically friendly (and because I’m a pack-rat) I started experimenting with making jewelry from these scraps of paper. Paper is a very lightweight and versatile material. I usually combine the paper with recycled glass or wooden beads, buttons, scraps of metal, and just about any little doo dad that I think might look good.
Although some pieces may look similar, my jewelry is not mass produced. Each piece is a unique, one-of-a-kind piece of art.
All jewelry is water-resistant, but not water-proof. Do not immerse in water.
