Orchid Pendants

Posted by Christina on 8/24/2005
These were a little tricky for me to figure out, but after I stared at an orchid for about an hour this is what I was able to make. Unfortunately a few got destoyed before I could even photograph them. They can be pretty delicate so I have been making them a bit thicker lately.

Amber Purple Orchid
This was also made with NS amber purple and ex light yellow. I made a gather with the amber purple before I made the petals, and it gave it some neat whispy yellow stripes.

I also enjoy sculptural ceramics, pottery, lapidary work, acrylic paints, and lost wax casting.I guess you could say that I am a multi-media artist. I am also currently enrolled and taking classes to get my Liberal Arts Degree. If you are interested in purchasing any of my work there is a link below where you may check out my recently made items on Ebay.

    nice!
    LLuvia Brito: You've done a beautiful job with these orchids! Sculpted flowers can take a pretty big investment of time but it really pays off!
