Growth Rings a Fundraiser for WNC

GROWTH RINGS - A Fundraiser for WNC and an homage to…

The fallen trees

History and landscape lost

The concentric/cyclical and blemished documentation of time

The indelible mark of loss/hardship

The power of community

The sharing of our resources… and our stories

Grace for our new blemishes

Coin and commemoration

Stories to be told

Using my hands again

Each pendant is unique. I am using a technique called fusing to make each pendant, imagine taking the silver to the point just before it melts so that everything "softens" just enough to connect. The visual results are textural and slightly different for each pendant. There is something poignant (for me) about taking the silver to that point just before it changes form completely by melting.

50% of the proceeds of each pendant sold will go to a local relief organization here in WNC. Chains are not included.
