Iris Brooch
My mother has asked me to make her a brooch similar to my Seasons Brooches that I did for my father-in-law. One of her favorite flowers are irises, so she asked for an iris brooch. Like with the smaller marriage-of-metals piece in my previous post, I first design it in Illustrator. Then I go into Photoshop and play around with the colors and see which combination looks best.
(The colors represent copper, brass, nickel & silver.)
I will send these pictures to my mother and see which she prefers.
We are moving in a week and a half, so I don’t know how much I will be able to work on my jewelry until then.
Edit: My mom chose the first one!!
