Muse du Jour

My name is Marianne Plumridge. I am an artist of mythic fantasy works, pulp science fiction, portraiture and fine art images. I also satisfy my creative muse with sewing, cooking, writing, reading, crochet, and jewelry-making. These have been my thoughts and adventures with whichever muse drives me each day but in the last year my return to jewelry-making has taken a more serious turn. So, for the time being, I'll show it here. You can find more of my art at https://daubdujour.blogspot.com/

And now for something completely different...

 
"Green Dragon Suite"
(Necklace & Earrings)  Price: $ 80.00 
I mixed the metal tones in this one, just because now and then, I feel it adds visual 'texture'. Antiqued bronze elements amplify and compliment the base silver, and also make sure that the bronze dragon doesn't look out of place. The purple beads are pure Amethyst, and the blue beads are vintage Czech glass. While I wasn't thinking along those lines, it has been pointed out to me that the blues, the filigree silver connectors, and the feather dangles lean this creation towards an almost Native American vibe. And again, I had fun engineering the focal the dragon is hanging from. That's half the fun, you know. Trying out ideas to see how they look and organically growing from there. Some of these elements shouldn't work together, but I'm so glad that they do. 
 
Thanks for stopping by,
Cheers,
Marianne
