Folded Heart
The brief was to create a heart and to incorporate the client's wife’s birthstone into the artwork. I wanted the colour to radiate out from the center and to look like a flower. To create the flower, I used Swarovski crystal petals, crackled glass beads, clear crystal beads in turquoise, tanzanite, and blue zircon. I then added touches of clear and turquoise stones onto all the folded petals to add a radiating effect to the outside.
