Linda,
 
Where is this show, when is it and how long does it run?  Do you need  to 
be there while it is running [part or for the whole show]?

Yes, I  love to hear what someone else sees in my work. It gives me a much 
better  picture of it to hear it through someone else's eyes and view 
points. 
That  was really nice of you to ask her to do this and I really liked 
hearing 
it  so much.  The picture I have is just a scan from my Epson scanner so I  
really did not know that all those details were showing - I just hoped for  
the best and sent it out.

Today, I am working on getting my three  pieces of work ready to send off, 
via email, for the National show that is  held by the Arts Unbound 
organization - for people with handicaps - I hope  some of you are entering 
it, too. It is FREE to enter - you just send them  jpg's of three pieces of 
your work, and some additional information they  have listed that need to 
accompany the photos.

You can enter by  getting you application on line at:

>> Hi  All,

>> I shared Lynda's picture of the talisman she  named _M_ with a friend of

>> Lynda, I hope it does the picture  justice.

>> It's beautiful. My  impression is an all-seeing eye of mother earth. In
>> purple and  yellow gold colors. It would be very interesting to fondle
>> with  lots of different textures in the beads.
>>
>> Recall the  cabochons I bezel with seed beads? Start with that, and
>> envision  an even larger border. I suspect it is beaded to a backing
>> perhaps  covered with ultra-suede or felt. Then there are contrasting
>>  decorative beads around the bottom half completed with beaded  fringe
>> surrounding the lower half.
>> It
>> is  nicely asymmetrical. The center cabochon is canary yellow and the
>>  bezel is constructed with dark purple iridescent beads highlighted
>>  with gold beads and some blue iridescent beads. The fringe is made
>>  with kinda greenish gold bugle beads (tubes) with brighter purple  tiny
>> seed beads at the ends. It is on a strung necklace of  same/similar
>> beads plus some blue mother-of-pearl type coin beads  and a few green
>> leaves.
