In reply to Barbara Jacquin. Barbara, I agree. I sketch my ideas all the time so I won't forget my design ideas. In my sketches I also include written notes to clarify my thinking. The whole process helps me think through the piece.

In reply to Rena Klingenberg. In fact, since I am a one-only creator, I end up taking a fair amount of time doing sketches. I think people better appreciate the value of the piece when they see the progression of its creation.

It is so satisfying to work at a piece of jewelry and to love the final result. It’s why artists love to create. I like how you created a setting for the amber to allow it to be seen. Love seeing your design sketch, Barbara!
