New jewelry set from my painting, Soul of a Rose:

Here are more views of the piece:

A woman takes a moment to take in the fragrance of a pink rose. Inspired by the Waterhouse painting, "My Sweet Rose," which was commonly called "Soul of a Rose" from Tennyson's Maude poem. This romantic floral landscape is offered as a necklace, handmade by the artist from my original painting. Due to the variety of vintage and modern beads, I nicknamed this one "Grandma's Attic" as I was stringing the necklace.
An 18 1/2" beaded necklace of vintage pearls, glass and metal beads, with a toggle clasp, completes this unique piece of wearable art. A bonus set of dangly kidney-wire with heart charms earrings is included.

New, from my original painting, Lenore in the Breaking Dawn

In her prettiest ballgown, the ghost of Lenore casts a final look at the raven, before the day breaks and she fades. The rising sun illuminates the haunted cemetery, casting light of pink, deepening to magenta. Cherry blossom petals dance among the tombstones. This Gothic fantasy landscape, inspired by the "The Raven" poem by Edgar Allan Poe, is offered as a pendant, hand crafted by the artist from my original painting. Made from polymer clay with the print baked into it, then sealed with resin, giving the image a glass-like quality and providing waterproof protection.
