Hearing Drips... thanks for the feature!

my jewelry is happily featured in "I Dreamed I Saw..."
(the long silver drips of the Milan at Night earrings) this writer is ready for Springtime too!
Here's to the melting away of the snow and ice
revealing new life... http://www.idreamedisaw.com/2010/03/01/what-a-drip/


Thanks so much! :)


Good Things Come 'Round in Threes
















Maybe it's that Patrick was here for the weekend
that i'm feeling particularly more thankful than usual

we walked for hours in the sunshine yesterday
watching owners play with their dogs (young, old, and in between)
and little boys fishing out abandoned freshwater clams
beneath the over-sized rocks we rested on

sure, we were splashed quite a bit
but all in good fun!

When creating and naming these earrings...
i thought to myself "what are sayings about 3's?"
"bad things come in threes."
now who thought of something as dismal as that??

feeling like much more good can be noticed...
I made these the "good things come 'round in 3's" pair


just a little reminder that although your life may feel sometimes
as though it is whipping and swirling
there are plenty of moments where you can look beyond
(or often, right in front of you)
to find something
pleasurable. worthwhile. playful.


Hope you notice many wonderful things this month!

narrative scultpural jewelry


hello. wanted to show you a piece I created over the summer...
yes, it took me a long time to post

it allowed me to explore
through art
ways I experience being a therapist in training

how I envision the
.holding environment.
a place where a person can explore
express
and sit with someone else
in their pain.
for it is in our brokenness
that we experience breakthroughs

My intention is also allowing the wearer to have intimate side

for we're not always willing to show everything.
something able to keep to reveal...
perhaps depending on who's in company.


can't wait to do more narrative pieces like this!
have a great start to your week.
xo,
Lynsey

What's in store ?

the shelves are filling up in my new shop
silver, gold, brass, and coppery metals
a DELIGHT to work with
i'm embracing this creative kick.
an artists never knows how long their creativity will stay

so i plan to continue to push
and allow
myself to make more.
exploring my intentions and materials


afraid that if i take time away from the studio

creativity will rush away like the tide

and i'll need to wait patiently for its return
.

thanks for a wonderful kickoff!
it's a pleasure to create things

for you and others
to enjoy!

xo,
Lynsey

working on my Snow Day!

the snow has tucked in my car for the day
with classes and meeting canceled
i'm home working on photography for my new shop!

it's perfectly bright with the sun beaming
scattering light throughout the apartment

hope everyone is keeping warm!

now open for jewelry lovers!

hello lovelies!
i'm thrilled to announce my new shop is officially OPEN!
Sounds of Silver


my new focus in the studio is remaining open and spontaneous
approaching the raw materials
without any preconceptions
instinctual in the methods i choose to dap, saw, hammer, color...


it's freeing to not labor over a piece for too long
in doing so, each piece of jewelry maintains a freshness

enjoy these shimmer beauties :)
