This month's challenge is based on this 1899 illustration for American Crescent Cycles by Frederick Winthrop Ramsdell (you can read more about this artist and the illustration here):
I wanted to play up the color palette from this month's challenge by pulling out the deep rich teal, gold, sienna and lichen.
These colors compliment the hand-etched and colored copper, and are reflected beautifully in the lampwork beads from Blue Seraphim.
I also added some industrial touches with forged and riveted links:
Wahoo! Miss Molly, you always deliver! I love it. You are very prolific so early in the month as well. Please make sure to post your link someplace so that I can remember to grab it for the blog tour at the end of the month. You have my wheels spinning now... need to get crackin'!
Enjoy the day!
