First steps


Where does a new piece begin?  Sometimes I have an idea and need a stone to fit, other times I have a stone and design around it.  I have two pieces that I'll be making for the State Fair; one will use a stone or stones, and the other will be metal only.  That means that I'll be using both approaches.  Today I'll go through my stash of stones and look at some of the ones that are a little more challenging to use.  They'll give me the perfect opportunity to look at things from a different angle.
