Hi Sandra;

    I'll let you know how the market responds to my latest efforts, the
    "bricks and mortar" collection, which used, you guessed it, bricks
    and mortar.  The next series will be my "sticks and stones"
    collection.  You're right, same logic applies.  Heavy on the
    metaphor, light on the pocket.  I still have to pay the student loan
    for that MFA I bought back in 91, so I suspect these will be priced
    at considerably more than the value of the materials involved.  By
    the way, I spent today making reproductions of Edwardian pieces,
    excessive detail, pierced, engraved, etc.  I'm also working on a lot
    of that pave/white gold stuff you see slathered throughout Town &
    Country. Sooo, sometimes I need to "deconstruct" the issue of
    intrinsic value a bit.
