Ron Thomas "Migration" at the Joyful Jewel 1-30-15

"Migration"
Ron Thomas
Oil on Canvas, Framed Original

"Migration" by Ron Thomas is oil paints on canvas and beautifully framed.  The idyllic farm is the backdrop to migrating birds.  We can look forward to a scene like this one in the next month or so in NC, though much later for the northern states.  March and October are the biggest months for migration in our state, greatly anticipated.

Stained Glass "Lotus"

Anything with a lotus attracts my attention.  This stained glass piece by Donna Cassidy features the flower's petal layers vibrantly with the radiance from petals reaching out into space, like a spiraling meditation!

Sharon Blessum "Stone Concho" at the Joyful Jewel 1-22-15

Stone Concho
Sharon Blessum

Sharon Blessum brought a good number of the expertly cut and polished stones that were formed by her father when she returned from a visit to her home state of  North Dakota.  She has been so lovingly working with her father's stones to make stunning jewelry. This agate concho necklace surely brings a North Dakota cowboy to mind. What a gift for the wild cowboy in your life -- maybe for Valentine's Day.
