When I saw this ceramic focal cabochon at Bead Fest I was so intrigued by it that I just had to own it. I love science fiction and this reminded me of a planet floating out in space. I had no idea what I was going to do with it at the time. Like most of the pieces I create I had to wait for it to speak to me. I'm very pleased with the way it turned out. Any opinions??? I love hearing your comments and critique. You can find this piece in my Etsy store.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday Season. I have felt like I've been on a non-stop roller coaster. It's  been a fun and thrilling ride but I'm glad it's over. It was great being with my family and all the craziness that happens when we are together. But this roller coaster is finally coming into the station. I have a few quiet minutes to reflect upon the last year and set some goals for the new one. Last year was full of dreams. I wanted to do so many things that never happened. I wanted to make and sell more art and jewelry. I wanted to take classes to improve my skills. I wanted to get out into the world and meet more people who had a passion for the same things I did. What happened? Work! That's what happened. My brain could not contain all the ideas I had while sitting at my desk all day but by the time I got home I was too tired to manifest them. No more excuses.....It is time to turn those dreams into reality. So here we go.....New year, new roller coaster, and new ride.
