Chasing, Repousse of Bees and a Fish

Bee Bracelet #1

was completed the day I had to send it out to the buyer

so there really isn't a good photo of it.

Bee Bracelet #2 is done.

Both are of Aluminum, 

sealed with a unique lacquer brought to my attention by  Golden Paints. 

The earlier fish bracelet, also aluminum,

 has been worn nearly daily 

by a coffee shop owner for the past nearly 5 years.  

There is no trace, or sign of sealer failure, 

or any kind of discoloring, or marking on skin. 

It's pretty remarkable stuff.

(My time is spent on more than C&R,
so I tend to update the 
"artings", "woodprints", "chasedthings", "paintings" 
blogs in waves,
depending upon what I'm into lately)

New Metal Heads

These are the latest two:

 

The first two metal heads were made crudely and quickly.

I made them out of desperation. 

I needed to find something that worked

as Personal Protectors.

  An experiment.

They would reside close to my ears. 
They will listen and hear 
whatever comes off the radio, 
out of speakers, 

out of mouths, 
hearing everything within earshot in all my surroundings. 
They will hear it all. 
Absorbing all,
before any of it has a chance to reach MY ears.

They will filter out all bad, 
all lies, 
and all disturbing noise.

  I suppose that's why they have already disturbed expressions.

Knowing these first two would need to be relieved,

I began to make more.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with them yet.

I make them as needed. 

There will be more.
