Kathy Pierce aka artist_kathy - long distance student

Kathy is a long distance student, learning Toodles from the PDF or SBS magazine, rather than hands on classes.
She has a beautiful website, showcasing many more of her stunning works of art -

A beautiful piece done in sterling, around a gorgeous malachite cab. Wonderful!


A new version, Desert glass, added March 31, Oh My! -

Kathy says - "Thanks Sherry, just love your tut. I used 28ga wire for the weaving - it took twice as long but I think it held the stone better. It has a very snug fit and I didn't have to use any 'holding' wires for it. +++ The glass in the photo looks kind of yellowish and it's not. It's a piece of that meteorite Libyan Desert Glass and is much prettier in person."

Pretty pretty pretty --

Sue O of And The Bead Goes On

Sue O, the red-headed sister at ATBGO, has joined some of my classes...
She's already quite an accomplished wire artist, let me tell ya!
Feast your eyes on her lovely creations --->>>
Ever the rebel, Sue chose a large cloisonne bead, then matched it with lovely carnelian, stacked to fit. Oh, so lovely!
Next....
Sue chose a large pea size turquoise bead for her Butterly Kisses. She quickly realized that it would never fit her delicate wrist. So, she improved the design and added her own flavor by making it into a choker. Absolutely stunning! I adore the tiny dangling copper beads on the side. And the lover's knot at the center front. And the coiled links. And...

Oooooooooo lookie loookie at her version of the Tree of Life! Turquoise and Carnelian make such a wonderful combination -

Then we have the adjustable ring, all swirly and curvy in August-
Ooooo, the Hammered Heart! Sue is still deciding on her colors for the dangle.

The lovely Square Border Wrap class -

Huge thanks for the lovely photos, with your fabulous camera! The shadows are wonderful!

Ooooo, another long drive for the Tree of Life class. What a wonderfully exotic tree. Esther says that's how the trees are in San Angelo. I love it!
