Called ‘true to your nature’ … there is a green girl studios dragon egg bead worked into the design… It was a reference to anne mccaffrey’s ‘dragon rider’ series… This piece was especially meaningful for me because of the art beads used to make it… One of my favorite lampwork glass bead makers even created some beads to resemble stone…
I love this. The egg really stands out (I assume it’s the greenish one in front). I also like Anne McCaffrey’s Pern books and I think you’ve captured the beauty of her stark earth and rock landscape juxtaposed with the colours of life in the dragons.
thanks so much – actually the dragon egg is a green girl studios pewter bead – around the side… thanks so much for your comment and appreciating the attempt at creating a look of stone landscape…
