Work Table Progressive Thursday

Now yesterdays post Work table Wednesday showed you the messy work table.  So I have chosen some brass stampings from the table to create my focals with this week.  I have washed off the oils and now to play with arrangements. When designing a piece I know that a lot of Artist may sketch and draw their designs ahead of time but I like to stack and move the pieces around.  This probably takes more time but it allows me to visually see clearer and physically feel the beauty of the stampings that I so adore. I can oggle and ahh over them with love as I work. I took some chosen stampings

and started arranging the pieces in an assemblage style for focals. 

I started thinking of what color gemstones I have in my stash that can be used to make neck chains. I then pulled out some paints and Patina.

Then I proceed to paint some Brass.  I have some Blue Jade, some Angelite, oh my goodness I can hardly wait to get it altogether. The excitement begins to flow through my veins and I can Hardly contain myself. 

Now I start stacking and playing some more.  Maybe grabbing other accents from my stash on the messy work table.

I will now proceed to seal my painted brass.  However, the Designer Rusty Black Patina on the petals under the cameo comes sealed when I purchase the stamping so no extra step there.

Even though the excitement is rushing through every fiber of my body it is 12:30 in the morning and I must sleep.  I need to work Necklines for the focals and hopefully have one done for B'sue's creative group Finished up Friday challenge. All these emotions bubbling I hate to have to get up and leave my Brassiness in the morning.  Thanks for sharing your time with me and leaving a comment. Remember to return and see the finished necklace because Vintage is new again.
