Making changes

I'm a compulsive tinkerer by nature.  Nothing is ever quite right, and I'm always tweaking something.  Today it's the blog.  Yes, that's my hand holding my pliers, and it's from a drawing exercise I did several months ago.  It's not perfect, but I think it's kind of cool--a handmade image about handmade jewelry.  If I did more drawing I would go around at art fairs asking my friends to pose as hand models with the tools of their trade.  There is something beautiful to me about hands that work and people who make things with their hands.
