So this week for the Jewelry Making Mojo Challenge I asked participants to pick a challenge or contest to play along with and create a piece of jewelry. I'm right in the trenches with you and the challenge that I picked was to create something for the Art Bead Scene's February Blog Hop. If you are are new the Art Bead Scene, we challenge readers to create a piece of jewelry each month inspired by a work of art. This month it's Paul Klee's The Rose Garden - shown below.
In the painting I love the layered look of the buildings with the tiny windows and that was what I wanted to capture in my set here. I cut out the pieces from copper and textured them with an awesome texturing hammer - so much fun! I should have cut out house shapes - of course, I just now thought of that. (I'm also really good at coming up with witty come backs - hours laters.)
I paired the copper with some of my disk beads in the color palette of the painting.
This is Paul Klee's The Rose Garden.
There is still time to play along with the Art Bead Scene's challenge - you have until the 28th. And if you use Humblebeads in your creation - enter here for a chance to win a $50 Humblebeads gift certificate.

Your copper piece turned out really well. You are a woman of many talents.
I love that hammer, too. Perfect interpretation.
