Jewellery On DaWanda








I have so much Jewellery for sale on Da Wanda at the moment i dont know where to begin when it comes to adding pictures.Da Wanda is a great site for sellers as it is free to list but it hasn`t quite taken off yet,there aren`t too many buyers around.It`s lovely to look at and somehow less irritating than Etsy.My shop;

SCRAPBOOKING;Julian Opie`s swimmers ,Squid/Octopus?


I love what Julian Opie did on the side of that swimming pool.It`s interesting to ponder if other buildings had such literal depictions of what went on inside them on the outside...
Its so humorously serene i think it makes you laugh at all the things you`ve heard about "the deep" like the good disaster at sea tale, the proper gothic nightmare with storms,sharks,man-eating squid , Octopi,pirates,pirhanas,carnage.

Egyptian Goddess

Its really unusual to see a sculpture of a female that is huge, imposing, impressive and powerful.This one of an Egyptian Goddess is also a little bit spooky-bonus points!Its the Huge eyes and it was all red originally?Red is used under gold nowadays when gilding but maybe they didnt back then ,i dont know maybe it was gold.I swear it also looks a little mishcheivous.

Huge Giantess all red/gold/black?goddess,staring down at the population with her massively scary black mishcheivous eyes.I dont know if Archaeologists have a methodology for finding out who the cool people were in antiquity but i hope if they ever have that she is one of them.
