I was about to conquer the world but got distracted by something shiny....


I missed class tonight because I had to work late but the upside was that Lou and I went to the Moosehead Saloon for a late dinner.  He's travelling off and on so we have to catch time together when we can. 

It also gave me a chance to finish hand polishing the pieces in the picture.  I kept thinking that I should just throw this stuff in the tumbler but I don't want to lose the color....especially in the cuniform pieces.

 I'll be busy in the studio again this weekend....which is fine by me.  I still have at least 2 loads to prep for the kiln...more pieces parts and some medallions and shields.  Plus I have an idea for incorporating some leather into the pieces that I want to try out.  Too many ideas and not enough time.

Ahhh...if only I didn't have to work the day job....the jewelry that I could make.   Hey...Bill Gates, Warren Buffet...don't you have a spare million I could have.  I mean you can only do so much with your 50 billion dollars.  Really....you wouldn't even miss a million.  I'd give you free jewlery...LOL.

Yum, yum, yum, I just want to get my hands on all your components - of bronze I mean, of course! Wish you would sell them in your Etsy shop, but I understand the pleasure of using them in your own creations...

Components on Etsy may be something I do in the near future. Have to get my November show done first.
