What I draw almost always comes from a three dimensional image I hold in my mind, and it is not a live object –but rather– a piece of jewelry that would be too complex to make with the metalsmith techniques that I use. Sometimes my well of ideas fills up so much, that I need to capture images with greater ease, and drawing lets me do this.
I made this series using silver and gold pen on black cardboard. Most drawings measure approximately 8 by 11 inches (21 cm x 28 cm).
