Taking Itty Bitty to a Whole New Level

When I look at the work of my buddy Vickie Porter of In My Head Studios, I always think to myself (after I take in the pure art and beauty), "I seriously could never do that!" The obvious patience and attention to detail she has astounds me. Just look at the detail in this piece....

Sophisticated Squares -
Altered Domino Jewelry Pendant - Upcycled Recycled

This gorgeous necklace is made from a colorful collage that "is a tiny print of a larger work of art that I made specifically for my domino pendant jewelry. The collage was done with a variety of papers, rubber stamps, acrylic paint, and ink. It is printed with high quality archival paper and ink."

Vickie says "I have a seriously good/bad relationship with perfectionism so my customers can rest assured they are getting top quality materials and artwork. It’s sometimes hard to tell in photos online, but the dominoes and microscope slide glass pendants have real tiny paper collages on them. I work with ridiculously small pieces of paper sometimes."

From her profile:

I HAVE to make art like I have to breathe! There were just never enough papers, markers, or bottles of glue in my house growing up… I used it all up so fast! Now I cannot stop! I am so grateful to be an artist and have a place to share my work.
