Where does the time go?

 Where did the time go?  I can't believe I've been away for a year!  

So much has happened in a years time,  but creating has not stopped.   I became a grandma for the first time!  What can I say about being a grandma that grandparents all around the world don't already know.  Heavenly!!

I also finished graduate school!  It was tough going this past  year with a thesis to write and a portfolio to complete.  I'm glad that journey is over and I can refocus on creating my work.

I have begun to use more clay in my jewelry work and have also included my own art work in my jewelry.  The blue pendant with the black and white print is such a piece.  The image comes from a mono-print that I created in my printmaking class.  I then added resin to preserve the print in its ceramic bezel.  This is definitely something I want to continue to do. 

I have some maintenance to do on my blog, there are a few things I want to change and some things I need to edit out.  There is also a big mistake on my banner that needs some fixing.  

So much to do, but I am happy to say that with grad school out of the way, I should be able to refocus my energy.
