The path leads to her, you can hear the soft jingles of her movement, by the sea she collects the sticks and stones and tiny treasures after every storm… A single, hand made cone shaped bell- form scored with ancient markings has been bisque fired but not returned to the kiln for glaze. Hand colored with silvery - bronze washes of studio materials and joined to a piece of driftwood with simple, hand woven cord. Embellishment is intuitively chosen… each piece of driftwood is like a book with stories to tell… of land and then shaped by the furies of the sea… above the bell, a loop of old metal and frosty white seed beads, bone, antique metal and faceted crystal. Below the bell, a hand painted wood beads lead to the magician, the 1000 year old ancient excavated crystal bead and from it, a cascade of seed beads, tiny seashells, vintage baroque pearl and ocean glass.
