Through out the process I was inspired by the art work alone, it reminded me of a kind of lace.
Now that I have lace on my mind these beauties just made themselves. I imagined having strips of lace and what I would do with them. I adore the orange and green leather combined with this idea of overlaying an off white lace. So instead of going in that direction of using lace and resin. I decided to paint on my design but tweaking it to resemble torn fabric. What I love is that no earring is exactly the same, they are individual pieces that comes in a pair. There is also a contrast in texture this particular design. I sealed only the painted area giving it a shine while the unpainted section (depending on the leather) has a rough or matte appearance.
I had a lot of fun making theses babies...
Yes, they are my babies. LOL
They are ALL MY BABIES!!! ...mmeeoooaaaa- aaaaah- ahhh.
