worthy of the picture game

The names are all in the mouse overs if I did this right.













The sad thing is, all this lovely jewelry is never shown on people, so it's utterly impossible to tell, for example, how the bracelet is to be worn. (it is a bracelet--it's 3.5 x 2.75 x 4.5 inches) There's some utterly gorgeous metal work, and I could cry for the lack of pictures of how it's worn. Jewelry, after all, is not designed for display on black velvet. It is designed for three dimensions of skin and bones, and thus a necklace that's all angles on a picture might actually look right on a person. There are all sorts of art, and most of them get hung up places and looked at or put on pedestals. but jewelry is to be worn or else what's the point of calling it jewelry?

I love the Memory of Touch so much. It makes me want to write something, but i haven't decided what.

Oh, and the reason why I posted these are that my books from Daedalus came yesteday and I'm so in love with Skilled Work, and wanted to share.
