Dignity

This Fantasy Portrait was made for my friend Gwen. She sent me a picture of her mother- who was clearly a very beautiful woman. I've heard Gwen talk a lot about her mother over the years and she sounds like an amazing person. Gwen has often described her as the kindest, most nurturing person she has ever known. She now suffers from Alzheimer's Disease.

They said I do.

I grew up just 4 blocks from my grandparents. We celebrated every holiday with them, I just loved their big yard and big house, so full of antiques and love. I cam across this picture of them and I knew it had to become a Fantasy Portrait- they seemed so young and full of love. They were married 51 years when my grandfather lost his battle with cancer.
"They said I do... and they did."

Was it wrong?


Here's my latest- a tribute to my great friend J! :) I've shared wine with her many times...
I had to design it on the diagonal so I could place it into this pendant.

More jewelry ideas

Here are a few more jewelry samples. The first is a great cuff bracelet. The second in another pendant necklace, this time with a colored cord to match the piece.

I am not afriad of flying monkeys- Step by step

We stared here with a picture of little Grace, dressed as Dorothy for Halloween.





Step 2: Here, the image was turned into a custom Fantasy portrait. I LOVE the Wizard of Oz- so this portrait was a blast to work on.

Step 3: Here is the accompanying Fantasy Jewelry piece. This is the perfect combo gift- Fantasy Portrait and matching Fantasy Jewelry. Mother's Day will be here before you know it!
