Fall Beauties

Thank you all for your amazing support since I reopened my shop at the start of November. I had the most incredible month of October in the field with my husband and I thank you for giving me your blessing to take leave. It wasn’t a vacation. Robbie and I worked hard every single day, filled some of our big game tags, prepared the farm for winter, planted a beautiful 2020 garlic crop, hunted backcountry with the horses and while we’re still behind on firewood hauls, we’re slowing ticking items off the to-do list which means more studio time for me! FINALLY!

It is wonderful to be creating again. I had these Pollinator Necklaces pieced out in September and am just managing to finish them up this week — I have a few more on deck for completion but I won’t get to them until next week (a cosmic cut of lapis lazuli and two more cobalto calcite stones will be employed). And owls!!! So much peace and quiet goes into my owls. Each one is one of a kind. I love seeing how they develop and change in tiny ways over time. In case you care to read the inspiration behind this piece, visit my Feather and Prayer post from a while back — I re-read that post from time to time because I find it to be full of stillness and power and peace.

I’m hoping to have new work up in my shop tomorrow morning around 10AM MST. See you there!
