I Finally finished my long and tedious project "For St. Jeanne" (Breastplate).This is an important piece for me. I have always marveled at the story of Joan of Arc ...she was an amazing woman. The strength, courage and conviction of this woman is astonishing, yet after everything she accomplished, she was still considered a heretic and burned at the stake. So, you see? no matter how strong your armor, you are never entirely safe.
It took many months to finish this piece and I'm very happy with the way it turned out. It is made entirely out of Tetley Tea Bags ('Tetley makes it better') and you know? I e-mailed the company and sent them the images of this piece and the Tea Kimono...you'd think I would have heard something back by now. Hmmm. Maybe I ended up in the spam box?
