Nature astounds me with its complex and intricate patterns; tree bark, the veins in leaves & flowers, gemstones…you get the idea.
One day on a walk in the nearby forest, I became intrigued by the lichen growing on the rocks and tree bark. For the first time I really looked at it up close, I took the time to really “see” it. I picked up some smaller stones and a few branches from the ground and took them back to my studio. My husband found a large stone on the property and brought it to me. You’d have thought it was Christmas morning by my reaction :)

*Niobium is a chemical element (symbol Nb). It is a soft, grey metal that is naturally found in the minerals pyrochlore and columbite. Niobium is naturally hypoallergenic and commonly used in a number of medical devices including prosthetics and implants, such as pacemakers. Often used in jewelry making because of its hypoallergenic properties, this metal is a safe choice for anyone with metal allergies. Niobium does not tarnish so no polishing!
