Punked

I put together these pendants and ring yesterday. I have had a lot on my plate lately with starting up a new class, getting ready for the reporting season and all the other commitments. I'm actually feeling quite overwhelmed by everything and quite apathetic, art wise. I really love my job but I do wish it was not so consuming. It would be nice to be able just to switch off. Must be the old age....

Octopunk

Thanks so much for the wonderful birthday wishes and sharing your kind words. I had my actual birthday on Thursday. This birthday has lasted for a week!!! Thanks to my fantastic husband John for everything. You are so sneaky- I didn't have a clue about the surprise party. Thanks also to Sarah and Jessica. You girls are absolutely fantastic!!!

I made this Octopunk piece- dedicated to my all time favourite member of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and absolute legend in his own right, Captain Nemo.

There aren't many images of his Nautilus or the very cool car in the movie, but if you get  chance you should check it out.
 
I walk a different path.
