From a different angle.

Yes, this is the same new work that I posted late last night. But because it was so late last night, I'm posting it again here, from a different angle. Wings finished this late yesterday, and it's phenomenal: old traditional style, weighty but also very spare and elegant, and get a load of that absolutely seamless overlay work with heavy silver. The new entry is here.

Meanwhile, I'm just further and further behind by the day. The insomnia is becoming a real problem, but it's a side effect not just of the meds but of the lupus itself, and I'm one of those people who functions better on raw exhaustion than I do on sleeping pills of pretty much any kind. That said, I'm going to be late with everything all week, probably, because I've already got too much that I need to get done and too few hours in the day and days in the week.

Then there are all the newish concerns now with the lupus itself worsening, and they're adding to my already considerable stress. January is always our most expensive month of the year (followed very closely by July, and that's not even counting April, which is tax month, in this). We're out the other side, but there are still bills yet to pay that followed us into February, never mind taxes upcoming and the rest of the year, so I have GOT to make some sales this week. I need help. I can't do this alone; hell, I can barely walk most of the time right now. But there are ten new pieces since two weekends ago: the new trio in his gemstone-bead series Sunday, here; Saturday night's all new vintage-style cuff, here; a new hook bracelet the other day, with a fabulous flame-red Rosarita heart, here; you can see the previous new gemstone beadwork set, the next in his Elementals series, here; and the really phenomenal big works from two Saturdays ago are here. Those other two new pieces I mentioned last Monday night are both up here and here. And then there's the brand new one linked above. More hearts are in the works for Valentine's Day including another hook bracelet and a pair of earrings. And we urgently need to sell them all. Please share, and buy if you can.

Links are here, and there's new work up, with more to come this week:

• Sales here; 
• Testimonials here; 
• Amazon wishlist here (priorities are first and foremost, the other ladder and the Bissell vac);
• Patreon here;
• Ko-fi here.

And if you've been contemplating a purchase? This would be a very, very good time to do it; I've got to cover all this staggering outlay somehow and get us through twelve whole months of a new year, plus put aside enough for a new well when the ground thaws enough to drill in the spring. And there's lots of fabulous new work, so please share all of the links.
