Two days ago I posted a rather sumptuous gold, diamond and emerald earring rendering for my Design a Day (Day 344). I was visiting my parents in NH and did the rendering in my parents’ atelier – a combined pottery and jewelry studio. The following pictures give a glimpse into our activities that day:
Joana sketching and trying to overcome a very sore throat and neck (note the multiple heated neck “collars”)…
Beginning to flesh out the gold metal tones…
Adding some orange highlights…
Adding yellow dots for bead settings…
The finished design…
My father pondering the technical details for a ring project…
My mother working on glazing her bisqued pots for a firing…
A squirrel emerges…
Intrigued? You can see more of my parents’ work at their respective pottery and jewelry websites.
As always, you can follow my designs here, and please hop on over to my website to subscribe to my newsletter. You’ll be the first to hear the latest Joana Miranda Studio news, learn of exciting events ,and more!
I love the humor in your mom’s work!
I’ll tell her that, Nina! She’ll be pleased:-)
