Edition 30 of What’s really there versus what I see.

I made “lace” necklaces out of seed beads from a necklace making pattern when I was a kid. They always took forever to make and then I never wore them. Here, I adapted the pattern for a higher priced TeePearls line. I have one other “one of a kind” necklace that I’m going to display on Saturday for $35-$45 to see if there’s any interest. I have no idea what will sell at this point, so I’m trying to have 15 of each of my 3 standard designs and then a few prototypes.

My new site is alive and kicking. I’ll still be updating here with TeePearls progress (slow going at the moment) and other projects I’m working on. I’m trying to keep Well Terned “professional” which just means posting polished work and not posting there when I’m depressed or frustrated. You can continue to enjoy my frustration here and on twitter.
This detail makes me incredibly happy.
I feel like I’ve finally come to a point where I feel comfortable using Illustrator and Photoshop to manipulate my hand drawn sketches into finished products that actually look like what I envisioned in my head from the start. As with many of the things I enjoy, I’m completely self-taught when it comes to digital drawing. I’ve read people criticize illustrations that appear to rely too heavily on the “live trace” function of Illustrator, but I use it to finesse certain pieces of illustrations I’ve drawn by hand and transferred to the computer (usually with my digital camera— I need a scanner). Even then, I go back in and retouch to adjust angles and thickness.
If using live trace this way is wrong, then I don’t want to be right.

porcelain pink faceted gem ring by Goldenink and polymer clay brooch by me
I really loved the colors and lines on this porcelain ring so I came home today and made a brooch out of leftover clay, baked it up, and pinned it on my sweater.
The bad news is that it looks like a Smartie Pop and I want to eat it.

_________.com
I’ve been designing my business cards with “www.terned.com” as my URL. The first time I checked, it was available. Not so much anymore. I’m not willing to pay a broker to track down the french person who has it parked, so I’m trying to come up with an alternative.
I’m also considering throwing in an extra “n” in “Terned.” I’m not crazy about it.
Any thoughts?
