Mini Painting Pendants

I've been working on more of my mini painting pendants. These are all landscapes of Cape Cod.  First I create a 1"x1" watercolor painting, then scan in high resolution and have copies made, then I go over each one with artist grade colored pencils so that each is unique. Finally I wrap and solder each and solder a sterling silver bail. I plan on working on some other ideas: flowers..whatever else catches my fancy!

Antique Book Pendant

Using pages from an 1834 Penny Magazine book, I construct a pendant by sandwiching a 1 x 1 inch piece of the magazine (actually a book) between glass, then soldering and adding a sterling silver loop that will work with a chain or neckwire. Each pendant is unique as these are NOT scans, but pieces of history...

No Regrets, No Worries

Here is a pendant I made for my daughter. Collage elements, glass slides, and a precious metal clay 'twig' I made, soldered, a sort of talisman...
