Cubist Inspired Colored Pencil Earrings
These one of a kind Cubist Inspired Colored Pencil Earrings feature a cross section of cast pencils. The sections are cut up at different angles resembling something very different from the original image.  Picasso, the father of Cubism, would paint a portrait displaying different views of  one object.
Since 2010, I have been designing handmade wood jewelry.  I cast a block of color pencils in clear epoxy resin. Once the resin sets up I would be able to cut the block into smaller pieces to make unique jewelry.  The first pieces were color pencil bangle bracelets.  As the bangle rotates the shape of the color pencil changes from a dot which is the point to a line of color lead.  This opened up a variety of design opportunities for creating brooches, earrings, pendants and cufflinks.
The bronze finish bezel size is 2 inches by 3/8 inch wide and approximately 1/8 inch thick. The color pencil sections feature a clear dome of epoxy resin that highlight the colors and protects the jewelry.  If you like these Cubist Inspired Colored Pencil Earrings take a look at my other color pencil jewelry items including Mondrian Inspired Colored Pencil Earrings
This will make a fashion statement and get attention when worn with any outfit. It is a great conversation piece. Most of your friends will not be able to identify the color pencils, but will be drawn to the exception colors.  Ask an adult what they see and they will not be able to tell you.  When you say ” Colored Pencils” they will respond “Wow.”  Ask a child and they will say “Colored Pencils.”  Have fun with this handmade jewelry.
