BJ, I will show the finished piece when done.
BTW, in doing this work as well in photography for a "client", there are often creative restraints dictated by the needs of the client, the likes and don't likes and the purpose of the work to that particular client. That is true with the butterfly jewlery item I have almost finished. The gemstones are not what I would want for the real beauty to be show and a few details are not as I would want if done with no client. Alas, having a client is the reason the butterfly is being made in the first place! I have no doubt she will be very happy and pleased with the result. I will be happy, too. However, if my choice some changes would be made but those are not in keeping with the reason behind the design.
This is not an apology...only a reality of doing any sort of work for the needs of others. The finished product must meet those particular needs. I do love doing this sort of work.
I will try to remember to IM you when the jewelry is finished and give a link. See ya. Thanks!
Tom.
