I’ve been wearing it a lot now that autumn has set in and shawls and heavy sweaters are being worn to keep the chill at bay. I’ve titled this piece “Black Mamba” for the little fellow fashioned in polymer clay that is wrapped around the curvy sterling silver wire midpoint on this brooch. It appears that he is guarding a treasure of bronze, glass, and bone beads as well as a sparkly grey drusy. As you might imagine, I get a lot of comments on this piece. When it comes to the subject of reptiles – particularly serpents, I predict that the viewer will either back away aghast with fright or disgust registered on their face, or they think the creature is interesting and perhaps even (dare I say?) amusing. My friend, Pat, falls into the former category. As for me, I think they are very interesting, if not beautiful, and I’m certainly not afraid – especially if they are made of polymer clay!
