Thank you sooooo much for this post. Not only did I love seeing her art, but it gave me an idea of what to do with my Grandmother's costume jewelry. Some of the pieces, I wear, but a lot of it is broken and has missing pieces. Even if most of it is glass, it still is pretty and meaningful to me. She was an extraordinary woman - changed her name when she was in her 20s because she wanted to and kept her hair died red.

on my facebook art page I shared an artist who grows crystals on dead things. I will have to get the link and share it under here. Thanks for sharing this

Kristy, I would like to see the link as well for the artist using crystals and decaying organic matter. I think this technique is much harder than it may seem. I hope your back is healing!

It took me a while to find the artist as I couldn't find the link I originally saw. I thought I posted it on my art page but maybe I forgot to hit the post button. Luckily I had likes his page so that was on the end how I was able to find him for you. Sorry it took so long Krena

No need for apology, Kristy! I am just grateful that you took the time to research and then shared it. It seems like a new art form so I am fascinated.
