Its a small 4″x4″ piece – i like me some miniature art…

It still counts if its from an ex-coworker friend, right? ;-)
I was contacted by Dena to create a birthday gift for her girlfriend. She pretty much gave me free reign with design – she just wanted a pendant that included Jerri’s birthdate or year or age. So i went to work! I ended up coming up with two designs and gave her the option of either or both.
Option #1:
Vintage bingo sheet background, with watch gears and a purple rhinestone trapped in layers of resin. Set in a vintage distressed gold tone watch case.
Option #2:
Map background, with watch gears, hands and a purple rhinestone in layers of resin, set in a vintage gold tone watch case.
Dena decided to take both! I hope jerri likes them!
Thank you for the custom order, Dena! If anyone out there would like to discuss their own custom order, feel free to email me at wiggelhevinatgmaildotcom. Or message me thru my facebook page, or convo thru etsy!

Squeeee! I got paid for a custom order recently and i decided to splurge and get some supplies from the dick blick website! they were conveniently having 20% off and free shipping…
We’ve got a big tub of liquitex gel medium, some blick gel medium, purple archival ink, spectrafix fixative, another set of pitt pens (one for the art studio and one for my “traveling” art kit), a new brayer, some white paint and gel pens and large stack of mini canvases! (not pictured is a koi watercolor travel set which was immediately added to my “travel” art kit)
So much fun stuff – can’t wait to play!!
(Sure wish blick would get their affiliate stuff sorted out…)
