This Old Jewellery Ain't So Bad!

Please notice that I have changed my Art Blog Service since I had trouble with being hacked last month. I’m really sorry you got sent a wrong email from some mysterious source. I’m using squarespace for my new “STUDIO VISIT WITH DOROTHEA” and I’ve hand pasted my previous list from MailChimp so if you’re on my list by accident and NOT interested in receiving monthly emails from me on what’s going on in my art studio, please feel free to unsubscribe.

Sea Creatures 2019

I began making sea crabs early this year and so far, have a small series of them. Two have already been sold, at $80.00, including the one on the right. I also made a very large jellyfish; the video can be seen on my website.
